The result was an oversized parent fractal ; consisting of a series of rings with a multi-bayed Mandeloid ; lying inside the largest ring. This parent, which has X-axis ; symmetry, may easily be seen by outzooming to a magnitude of ; 0.05. Today's image lies in the debris-filled East Valley of ; its parent Mandeloid, which is rotated 180 degrees, so that its ; East Valley has become a West Valley. ; ; The image was calculated with a bailout radius of 600, the point ; where the solid outside parts just begin to break up and ; evaporate. The pale blue network is actually the inside stuff ; starting to break through. ; ; I had first intended to name the image 'Pale Blue Network', but ; finally decided on "Deep Blue Network", which has a more ; technologically advanced ring to it. The rating of a 7 is close ; to FOTD average, and makes the calculation time of a fireball ; fast 51 seconds well worth the effort. ; ; Calculation may be avoided however by viewing the image on the ; FOTD web site at: ; ; ; ; A Hi-def version is available at: ; ; ; ; The entire library of images prior to November 2010 may be found ; at: ; ; ; ; Thursday here at Fractal Central was vastly improved over ; Wednesday. The partly cloudy sky and temperature of 66F 19C ; felt just about right for early May. (At least the fractal cats ; said so.) FL took advantage of the pleasant conditions, working ; in the fractal garden. My day was occupied with other things, ; such as pondering the meaning of existence. I have long since ; outgrown such rational but lame answers as 'the meaning of life ; is that which we give to it by our accomplishments'. ; ; There is no mystery about the meaning of the FOTD however -- I ; enjoy fractals. The next one will be posted in 24 hours. Until ; then, take care, and are skeptics really satisfied believing ; that everything is an accident, that their unique identities ; 'just happened', and that this is all there is to it? ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jamth@mindspring.com ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= Deep_Blue_Network { ; time=0:00:51.30-SF5 on P4-2000 reset=2004 type=formula formulafile=basicer.frm formulaname=MandAutoCritInZ function=recip passes=1 center-mag=-1.131856371048401/+0.27985603033438/\ 4.314619e+011/1/-129.75/0 params=5.4/-1.7/-5.4/\ -7.3/0/500/0/0 float=y maxiter=1500 inside=255 periodicity=6 mathtolerance=0.05/1 colors=0007HM39HauJbpGclEdhBec9f_6gW4gS2mEAr1Hp7Fo\ CDnIBmN9kT7jY5ic3hh1ggDgfPfe`fdlfcxceoagfZhZXjQVkI\ RlMOlPLlTIlWEl_Blb8lf5li6ie7ga8eY90UA`QBZNDbKEeIFh\ FGkDEhJCeOAbT8`Z6Yc4Vh3Tm8YgDaaHeWMiQQmKVqEZu9WqAU\ mARiAPeBMaBKZBJXHJWNIVTITYHScHRiHQnWfQjw1xJ3A02A01\ A00A08A06AAE070AAK070AA_070AAYAAQAANAAEAAGAA870584\ 897A9ACADEAGGZJIWMKdUTklarozzzzzzzzzzzwzzhUzdbz`Xz\ WRzSLzOGzNJzNMwMOwMRwMUzmWzmZmL`XMPINE3O38P9DQEIQJ\ NROSSTXSYaTbfTgcWa`ZWzzRWdLUgGRhJPiMNjPKjRIkUGlXEl\ ZzmYIZXKSWLMVNFUP8TQ2TM4PI6LzmHBAD7C93E50F1zmGAHVE\ IizzcSTZYYUdbPkgKqlFohPmdZlahwk4NLIQPGSSEVVCXYAZ`8\ ac6cf4ei2aeBZbKW_TSXaPUjMRrSOhYL_cIRiFIoC9uA0hM7WY\ EJhLGYMEONtKehQlXWrMaxLZyLXyLUzLSzLQz_9WYVVWoVXl_Y\ jdZhh_fm_dq`hpalpbppctpcwpipkojfucazYXraQjeJbhCafE\ adGabIaaK3ew2cl2ba1`R1_G1Z6DUKPPY`KklFyfMu`SqVYmQd\ jKjfEpb9v_8k`PpeLg`GZW0Uc } frm:MandAutoCritInZ {; Jim Muth a=real(p1), b=imag(p1), d=real(p2), f=imag(p2), g=1/f, h=1/d, j=1/(f-b), z=(((-a*b*g*h)^j)+(p4)), k=real(p3)+1, l=imag(p3)+100, c=fn1(pixel): z=k*((a*(z^b))+(d*(z^f)))+c, |z| < l } ; END PARAMETER FILE========================================= ; ; ; ; _______________________________________________ ; Fractint mailing list ; Fractint@mailman.xmission.com ; http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fractint ;
