In a scientific sense, ; chakras do not exist at all, but strangely enough, even after ; thousands of years, those who believe in chakras have yet to ; realize that they are concerning themselves with nothing more ; than a traditional myth. Someone should enlighten them. (It ; will not be me however. I kind of suspect that chakras are very ; real.) ; ; The rating of a 7 is totally average. If I had done a bit more ; work on the colors, I might have raised the rating another half ; point. ; ; The minibrot at the center is of the 2.15 variety, still ; basically a quadratic minibrot, but with the distortions already ; obvious. ; ; The calculation time of 40 seconds is conveniently brief; the ; web sites can make it even briefer. ; ; Eliminate all calculation at the FOTD web site, which is at: ; ; ; ; Eliminate calculation and enjoy high definition at: ; ; ; ; The FOTD back images are held on file at: ; ; ; ; After post time yesterday a very noisy thunder-storm moved in. ; When lightning struck a pole only 30 meters away, Cassie dashed ; down the hallway and ducked under the bed for cover. Nicholas ; dashed down the hallway with her, but soon found his courage and ; returned to his window shelf. Today brought lots of clouds and ; continuing humidity, with a temperature of 88F 31C. As of post ; time, no rain had fallen. The fractal cats took it easy through ; most of today, though Nicholas got frisky when he got into a bit ; too much catnip. ; ; The humans passed the day doing human things, mostly connected ; with work. The next FOTD will be posted when the time between ; now and then has passed. Until whenever, take care, and have a ; peaceful interval between FOTD's. ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jimmuth@earthlink.net ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= Fractal_Chakra { ; time=0:00:40.00 SF5 at 2000MHZ reset=2004 type=formula formulafile=basicer.frm formulaname=SliceJulibrot5 center-mag=+0.270686782\ 7674707/-0.1229140457964359/9.212966e+009/1/-120/0 params=0/0/0/0/0/0/0/0/2.15/0 float=y maxiter=3200 inside=0 logmap=140 periodicity=6 colors=00000202404606808A0AC0CE0EG0GI0IK0KM0MO0OQ0\ QS0SU5UMAWEFYIK_MPaQUcUZeYcgahidmkhpmmonnnmmkljhkg\ eihahjYgkUemQdnMcoN_mNXkNUiNRgNOeOKcOHaOE_OBYO8WO5\ UYCRgJPqQMzXKsMPpBUl0Yi4_d7`_AaYDcVGdTJeQMfOQhLTiJ\ WjGZkEamBdn9go7jpBenF`mJWlMRkQMiUHhXCgU8fR9cO9aLA_\ HAYDAVCBTBBRABP6lgBidGgaLd_QbXV`VUbXTcYSdZRecQfhPg\ mOhrNjvMkzLlzKmzJrzIvzIzzKjjLdjNZkOTkQOlRIlTCmU6mV\ 1mW9hXHdYO`ZWW_cS`jOYhPWfQTdRRbSP`TMZUKXVHVWFTXDSY\ LVVTYT``QhcOe`QbYR`WSYTTWQUTOVRLWOIXMGYLJaKMdKPgJS\ jIVmIXpGVoFToERoDQoCOoBMnAKn9Jn8Hn7Fn6En5Ii5Md5Q_5\ UW5YR5aM5eH5hD4eI4bM4_Q4YU4VZ4Sb4Pf4Uj7UkAUlDUmGUn\ JUoMUoPUpSUqVUrYUs`UscctfcuicvlcwomwfmmYmdQmWHmM8m\ D0u44v77w9BxBEyDIzFLzHPzKSzMWzOZzzbzzezzazzZzzWzzT\ zzQzzNzzJzzGzzDzzAzz7zz4zz6zz8zIAzHCzGEzFFzFTz`ezu\ bzv_zwXzxVzxRzyNzyJzyFzyBzy7zy4zyLztazoqzjkzhfzg`z\ eWzdazYfzRlzKqzE5zb6z`6zZ } frm:SliceJulibrot5 {; draws all slices of Julibrot pix=pixel, u=real(pix), v=imag(pix), a=pi*real(p1*0.0055555555555556), b=pi*imag(p1*0.0055555555555556), g=pi*real(p2*0.0055555555555556), d=pi*imag(p2*0.0055555555555556), ca=cos(a), cb=cos(b), sb=sin(b), cg=cos(g), sg=sin(g), cd=cos(d), sd=sin(d), p=u*cg*cd-v*(ca*sb*sg*cd+ca*cb*sd), q=u*cg*sd+v*(ca*cb*cd-ca*sb*sg*sd), r=u*sg+v*ca*sb*cg, s=v*sin(a), esc=imag(p5)+9 c=p+flip(q)+p3, z=r+flip(s)+p4: z=(-z)^(real(p5))+c |z|< esc } ; END PARAMETER FILE========================================= ; ; ; ; _______________________________________________ ; Fractint mailing list ; Fractint@mailman.xmission.com ; http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fractint ;
