The ; location is in the center of the north branch of Seahorse Valley ; of the large minibrot on the main spike of the parent M-set. ; ; But no minibrot lies at the center of the frame. What we see ; there is a stretched-out slit with almost nothing of a Mandel- ; brot or Julia nature about it. The name of the image -- "At the ; Wrong Angle" -- explains the problem. We are viewing the scene ; from the wrong angle. We are viewing it from some monstrous ; unimaginable angle in the fourth dimension. ; ; To bring the large-scale pattern to near perfection, the entire ; image has been stretched and skewed to the limit, yet except at ; the center, the stretching is hardly noticeable. ; ; The image earns a rating of an 8 even though it did appear ; several years ago in a slightly modified form. ; ; The parameter file runs in 4-1/3 minutes. Hopefully, with such ; extreme stretching and skewing, it will run accurately on all ; machines. (But it sometimes gives me trouble even on the ; machine that created it.) ; ; Until the official FOTD web site is again up and running, I ; recommend viewing the finished image at: ; ; ; ; and don't forget the back images posted at: ; ; ; ; The un-notable winter weather continued today here at Fractal ; Central, with cloudy skies, only a few breaks of sun, a few ; flurries of snow, a brisk north wind and a temperature of 36F ; +2C. The mighty fractal cat, not quite as mighty as he once ; was, spent the day watching the world go by and plotting mis- ; chief. The humans simply made it through the day. ; ; I will post the next FOTD when the time comes. Until whenever ; that might be, take care, and what's that! . . . the world did ; not end . . . what a disappointment! ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jimmuth@earthlink.net ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= At_the_Wrong_Angle { ; time=0:04:20.00 SF5 at 2000MHZ reset=2004 type=formula formulafile=basic.frm formulaname=DivideJulibrot center-mag=-0.000000000\ 00020463/+0.00000000023549410/4.597516e+009/0.0131\ /88.53859228715406/-89.1361541431747213 params=-92/189.6/-26.6/58/-442.1377733748792/0.169\ 7133339657901/-442.1377733748792/0.169713333965790\ 1/9/250 float=y maxiter=60000 inside=0 periodicity=10 sound=off mathtolerance=0.05/1 colors=000neSlbUk`WiZZgX`fVbdTddQkcRfcRbcRZcRVbSRb\ SNbSJbSF`OAbSBdVBfZBhaCjdClhCnkDpoDrrDsuDpsCnrClqC\ joBhnBfmBdkAbjA`iAZg9Xf9Ve9Xl0Vh5Td9S`DQXHOTLNPQLL\ UJHYIDaG9eF5iQNZYeP_dO`cNacMcbLdbLeaKgaJh`Ixb0i`IV\ ZZ8VzHYoP_dXaUdcJpb2nd5le8jfAhhDfiFdjIblK`mNZnPXpS\ VqUTrXTuZRsZPrZNpZLoZJmZCpcIlZOhVUeQ_aMeYHkVDqR8Lk\ uc_VvO4rP6oQ7lR8iSAfTBcUC_VEXWFUXGRYIOZJL_KWObh8ue\ CtcFs`IrZLrXOqURpSUoQXoN_nLbmIelGhlEkkBnj9qi7tiArl\ CqnEpqGosInvKmxSamZzbfzSmzIdzHWzGNzFzzEzzDzzBzzAzz\ 5zqhzzMzwRzgKJzDBz6zQECoY9YM6zBMefzzSzzEzzBzz8zz5z\ z2ztENeAGS79z3RsK5rG4dC4z83z4GzV`C6zz3zzCzz9zz6zz3\ zz4zz3zz9zz1PFeO`CZSHhKLrBPz3TbcEWPdXL`WNWVPRURMUT\ IRahiShyUJWE9ORkHHWA8GWKNOEHa9BA05z3Re2KT0DG06U0dN\ 0UG0K94Alnz`ajQPVECFMkECN7znHXKBm_YjYAhWFXUKYOPZPU\ _QZaSccVhfYmg`rhbviezjhzkkzlmzmoznnzoozqpzsqzurzws\ zxtzzuzzvzzwzzxzzyzzzzzzz } frm:DivideJulibrot {; draws 4-D slices of DivideBrot Julibrots 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), aa=-(real(p5)-2), bb=(imag(p5)+0.00000000000000000000001), 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), c=p+flip(q)+p3, z=r+flip(s)+p4: z=sqr(z)/(z^(aa)+bb)+c |z|< 1000000 } ; END PARAMETER FILE========================================= ; ; ; ; _______________________________________________ ; Fractint mailing list ; Fractint@mailman.xmission.com ; http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fractint ;
