Fractal of the Day
by Jim Muth

---

James Albert Muth has become well-known for his Fractal of the Day (FOTD).   Jim joined (contains photo) the "Fractal-Art Discussion List" not too long after it's creation.   And it was not long before he started publishing the now popular FOTD with it's first image.   Here you can see incredible fractal depictions resulting from Jim's explorations in that area where mathematics becomes art.   Jim uses the great FREEWARE open source software program FractInt (the developer's version) for his computer generated graphics.   FractInt is one of the oldest free software programs still being maintained (according to many sources, such as Wikipedia).

Until Jim establishes his own website for these fantastic creations, this first and original hosting will not only have the daily images but also his discussion-list-email which goes along with each graphic image.   Occasionally there have been FOTDs sent to the Usenet Newsgroup alt.binaries.pictures.fractals, where Jim first started posting his images on April 22, 1997 (and some have been known in the past to be at alt.fractals.pictures).   Also, there are various websites that archive images from these newsgroups.   If you would like a full set of the formulas and parameters that were used to create all of the FOTD images since the beginning, then please visit Les StClair's website.

The actual number of FOTD pages that exist here may vary, depending on the total size of the emails and images (current webspace is limited to around five hundred megabytes).   There may be anywhere from a few years to several year's worth of webpages.   Each FOTD webpage will be named after the FOTD date, as in the following:
        • FotD_97-04-12.html         (12th of April, 1997)
        • FotD_97-07-21.html         (21st of July, 1997)
        • FotD_01-09-03.html         (3rd of September, 2001)
And since there usually are at least several years worth, then selecting each month's index page within a given year may be the best option.   (The older years/months will be added back in as soon as is possible.)

So without further ado, use the links below to what should be an interesting journey into the Fractal Art world.   Please enjoy!!
