; Date: Thu, 21 Jul 2011 19:18:22 -0400 ; From: Jim Muth ; Subject: [Fractint] FOTD 21-07-11 (Reference Standard [6]) ; Id: <1.5.4.16.20110721191824.14df9372@pop.earthlink.net> ; --------- ; ; FOTD -- July 21, 2011 (Rating 6) ; ; Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts: ; ; I named today's image "Reference Standard" because it ; illustrates a standard object. Objects resembling the one that ; fills the frame appear very often in fractals with features of ; both the Mandelbrot set and the Mandeloids created by a higher ; power of Z. The higher power in today's image is 31. ; ; Objects similar to the one in today's image exist in immense ; numbers on the filaments extending from the half-morphed large ; minibrot on the main stem of the parent, which closely resembles ; a normal Mandelbrot set. Today's image lies on one of these ; filaments. ; ; The rating of a 6 is disappointing, even for me. I guess my ; excuse is the hot weather here at FC, which makes one think of ; nothing but taking it easy with a cold drink. But after all, it ; is midsummer, and laziness is the order of the day. I could ; probably beat the heat by moving to Patagonia for the summers, ; but the twice yearly trips could prove quite costly. Relief in ; the form of fractals is far more cost effective. ; ; The calculation time is a fireball 17 seconds -- fast by any ; standard. ; ; And the image is posted in finished form at: ; ; ; ; and in high-definition at: ; ; ; ; The original FOTD web site may be accessed at: ; ; ; ; Unrelieved heat, haze and humidity prevailed here at Fractal ; Central on Wednesday and Thursday, with a high of 95F 35C on ; Wednesday and 100F 38C on Thursday. It should hardly be ; necessary to say that the fractal cats spent both days in the ; coolest spots they could find. ; ; The humans also sought the coolest places. ; ; The next FOTD, which should be a very cool one indeed, will be ; posted in 48 hours. In the near future, we will return to the ; daily posting schedule, and I'll hopefully get out of the ; fractal doldrums. Until next time, take care, and believe the ; things you want to be true. ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jimmuth@earthlink.net ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= Reference_Standard { ; time=0:00:16.48-SF5 on P4-2000 reset=2004 type=formula formulafile=basicer.frm formulaname=FinDivBrot-2 function=recip center-mag=-1.758898341086305/+0.01826569421574188\ /3.4381e+010/1/-32.5/0 params=31/1e+030/0/0 float=y maxiter=1000 inside=0 logmap=37 colors=000FemKhlPkkUnjZqicsheuhfxgduabrXamR_hMZcGX\ ZBWU6SP7PL7MH8JG8FE9CD99CA6BAe2ed7hdBkdGnzzqzttzqv\ zommndmhdmbdcXdcRdbLdbFda9da4dzFMzFLzFKzFJzFJzFIzF\ HzFGzFGzDMzBSzAXz8bz7gz5mz4rzAnzFjzEkzEkzDkzDkzDkz\ HizLgzPezTczXaz__zPSzFLz5Ez8PzB_zEjz0yz5kzAYzELzIO\ zMRzQUzUXzY_zabzdezBuzIvzOwzUxz_yzezzkzzmszolzqezs\ ZzuSzvLztNzrPzpRznTzhRzcPzZNzULzPKzUNzZPzbRzgTzlWz\ pYzu_zyazpbzhbz`bzWXzRSzNMzIHzDBz96z_hzdbzhYzmTzqO\ zvJzzEzkKzgIzcHz_GzWFzSDzOCzKBzHAzFFzDKBzOEzSHzVKz\ ZNzaQzdTzhWzkZznwzcuzXtzQszJrzCkz9dz7Yz4Sz2Pz9MzGJ\ zNGzUDz`BzfAzd9zc8za7z`7z_8z_9z_9z_Az_Bz_Bz_Cz_Cz_\ FzaIzbLzdOzeRzgUzhXzj_zkYziXzgWzeVzcUzaTz_SzYRzWPz\ _NzbMzfKziJzmHzpGzsCzc8zOIzUSzZazdjziozVtzGyz1fzyV\ zcJzJKzIKzHLzHLzGMzFMzFUzCazAiz8qz6xz4tzPqzipzeoza\ nzYnzVpzVqzVrzVszVtzVrzRpzNozJjzKfzLazLYzMUzNPzNLz\ OHzOSzPazPkzQWz7Qz4Kz1Oz8 } frm:FinDivBrot-2 { ; Jim Muth z=(0,0), c=pixel, a=-(real(p1)-2), esc=(real(p2)+16), b=imag(p1): z=(b)*(z*z*fn1(z^(a)+b))+c |z| < esc } ; END PARAMETER FILE========================================= ; ; ; ; _______________________________________________ ; Fractint mailing list ; Fractint@mailman.xmission.com ; http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fractint ;
