The formula that ; creates the image is simply a Julia version of the FinDivBrot-2 ; formula, the FinDivBrot-2J. ; ; The Mandelbrot aspect of the fractal is an E-W string of large ; bays inside a triangular area of chaos. Today's image is the ; Julia set of a point on the southern shore line of one of these ; bays. ; ; The image consists mostly of 'inside' areas. The terraced ; effect was created by rendering the scene with the inside set to ; 'fmod' and a proximity of 0.3. ; ; The name "Gone to Julia Land" describes the 4-D orientation of ; the image slice. The rating of an 8 might be a bit liberal, but ; it's not a bad image and the terraced 3-D effect is striking. ; ; The calculation time of a mere 8 seconds is one of the briefest ; ever, and will have passed before the fractalist has time to ; blink and think. ; ; Avoid the hassle and find peace of mind by viewing the finished ; image on the FOTD web site at: ; ; ; ; Be awe-struck by viewing the image in high definition at: ; ; ; ; And remember the original classic FOTD web site at: ; ; ; ; With a temperature of 61F 16C today was another near perfect day ; here at Fractal Central. It was only *near* perfect because of ; the early-morning fog. The fractal cats, never satisfied with ; less than total perfection, took the day in stride. They spent ; the morning chasing imaginary bugs and the afternoon sleeping ; and eating. The humans, FL and myself, spent the day wrapping ; up loose ends. ; ; The next FOTD will be posted in 24 hours. Until then, take ; care, and when asked if I think mankind will ever reach the ; stars, I usually reply that I have bad news and good news. The ; bad news is that, due to financial difficulties and lack of ; resources, we will probably never even reach the other planets ; of our own solar system, much less the stars. The good news is ; that by the time all the feel-good techno-talk is finished and ; it has become obvious that humanity will never venture into deep ; space, no hopeful astronaut now alive will still be around to be ; disappointed. ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jamth@mindspring.com ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= Gone_to_Julia_Land { ; time=0:00:08.00 SF5 at 2000MHZ reset=2004 type=formula formulafile=basicer.frm formulaname=FinDivBrot-2J function=recip center-mag=0/0/0.02958801 params=-2/25/16/0/-2.552\ 41736198004/-0.498336741233558 float=y maxiter=3600 inside=fmod proximity=0.3 logmap=yes symmetry=origin periodicity=6 colors=000rzzVjYamNgqCzt1kq5jo9irChjGggJfejecQceSo\ fT`gm_hWYiYXjZWkWVlUUlSTmQSmORnMRnJQoHPoFOpDNpBMq9\ Mq7V_OcIdl0ui4qf7mcBj`EfYHbVL_SOWPSSMVPJYLGaHDdEAh\ A7k65n3DjBLfJTbQ`ZYhWdeXfbYg`YhYZjV_kT_lQ`mNaoLapI\ bqFcsDctAdu8dvFimLmeRrXXvPXvOXvNXwMYwLYxKYxJYyIYyH\ ZzFZqFZgFZYFZOFZEF_4EKNV4fk6fk8glAhmChnEioGjpIjqLk\ rNlsPltRmuTnvVnwXox_pyYqqWriTt`RuTPvLMxCMxHMxNNwTN\ wZNwdOvjPndReYSYRUPLVHEX87TBAPFELJHHNLDQO9US5YV1aZ\ 5ZZAWZFTZKQZONZTKZYHZbE_`E`ZEbXDdVDfTDhRCiPCkNCmLB\ oJBqGAsIApLBmNCiQCfTDbVE_YEW`FTbGQeGMgHUjIZmIcoJmr\ KzuLmkJcaHURFKHAD307GCHUHObTZn_YiNZc9_cB`bDabFbn0C\ o5Fp9HpDKqHMqLOrPRrTTsXWs`Ytd_thbuldupfpnbkmZgkVbj\ RZiNUgJPfFLdBGc7Cb3Ea2Fa2G`2H`2I`2J_2K_1L_1MZ1JSCF\ KOBC_74kD4gJ4cP3_W3Wa2Sg2On1Ko1Kp1Lq2Lr2Ms2Mt3NaDN\ IOMIQMISLHUKHWJHYJG_IGaHFdGFfGFhFEjEElDEnDDpCDrBCu\ ACtCDrEEpGEnJFlLGkNGiQHgS } frm:FinDivBrot-2J { ; Jim Muth z=pixel, c=(p3), 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 ;
