This spurious cap is rather sensitive to parameter ; changes, most of which I have yet to check. ; ; Today's image shows the result of one such change. In it, I ; increased the exponent of the real(p4) parameter 15 orders of ; magnitude and checked the chaos the change creates in the ; minibrot cap. ; ; The underlying minibrot lies in the trunk of the period-34 ; elephant on the south shore line of East Valley of the ; Mandelbrot set, but this number appears to be totally lost in ; the image, where the topmost pattern has 8 elements and the next ; pattern inward has 10. ; ; I have named the image "Vacuum Energy". The name indicates that ; the image overlies the emptiness of the interior of a minibrot, ; and sometimes, just as in the 'real' physical world, the nothing ; of a fractal vacuum can be filled with quite a bit of something. ; ; The rating of an 8 indicates both mathematical and artistic ; value. The color palette is a tweaking of the palette I used in ; the March 4 image. ; ; The calculation time of 1 minute, 25 seconds is fast enough. Of ; course, the web sites are even faster. ; ; The big-time business pros will view the finished image at: ; ; ; ; But wait! High-definition variations are at: ; ; ; ; And the back images are stacked at: ; ; ; ; A mix of sun and clouds with a temperature of 43F +6C made today ; a typical end-of-winter day here at Fractal Central. With all ; the talk on the big news outlets of snow in the Northeast, one ; would think FC was buried. Actually, not a flake has fallen in ; the past week and the ground is bare, with bulbs already popping ; up in FL's garden. The fractal cat is unconcerned with snow or ; flower bulbs. All he wants to do is get into the places where ; he is not permitted, such as storage closets and the outdoors. ; The humans, with enough to keep them busy, want little. ; ; The next FOTD will be posted in a number of hours. Until ; whenever, take care, and we will never solve our problems until ; we fully understand them and have the courage to accept them for ; what they are. ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jimmuth@earthlink.net ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= Vacuum_Energy { ; time=0:01:25.00 SF5 at 2000MHZ reset=2004 type=formula formulafile=basic.frm formulaname=HyperMandelbrot2 center-mag=+0.2587410\ 51607766/-0.00134388247424955/4.63764e+010/1/-159/0 params=0/0/0/0/1/0/1e-085/0 float=y maxiter=2700 inside=0 periodicity=0 colors=000E0lF2lG4lH6lI6nK8nM9nOBnQDnSDnUEiXGa_ITb\ JLeJDhJ4kN0nQ0qT0tX0w`0ze0zl1zs6zw_zmYqaVgSJ_GLQ8K\ J1JG0GE0KB1N86N99PDBQGEWJE_NG_QGdTIiVInXJsYLx_OzaT\ zbXzdazfdzidzkbzn_zkXzlOziGsf9kb4d_0YX0RY0QY0Q_0Q_\ 0Qa2Qa9QbGQbLQdRQdYQfdQfiQgpQgwQnzNgzQazRVzVQzXJzY\ Dza6zb1wd0sg0pi0lkIkgOkdTlaYlYblVglRlgOqbLwYIzTGxQ\ ItOIsNIpJIlIIkGJgEJdBJb9J_8JO1LY6JgBIiGGiLEiLDiL9i\ J8iT6iT4iT1iT0iT0iT0iT0iT0iT0gT0dT0bT0_T0YT0_T0aT0\ XT0aV0dV0gV0kV0nV4qV9wTDzTIzTNzTQzTVzT_zTbzaYwgVlf\ QbdNVaJLaEBaB1a60a20a00a40a90aD0aI0aN1aQ4aV8a_BabE\ agEanGakGbiIffI_dITbJL_JEYLIVLLTJLVLNRLOONOLNRIOTG\ OXDQX9QX6RX2RY1T_0Ta0Va0__0VY0QX0LV0NT1OT1QT2RQ2RN\ 4TL4VG6XB6Y88Y28_09a09b0Bd0Bf0Dd0Bb29b69a98_D8_G6Y\ J6XN4XQ2VT2TT1TT1RT0NT0RT0VT0_T0bT0gT0kT0nT1sT1wT1\ zT1zT1zT0zT1zT8zXEz_LzbRzd_zgfzklzpszlzwizsfqpbbl_\ QiXBlT0pQ4sNDwJLzGTC1lD1l } frm:HyperMandelbrot2 {; periodicity must be turned off a=(p1),b=(p2): q=sqr(a)-sqr(b)+pixel, b=(p3+2)*a*b+p4, a=q, |a|+|b| <= 100 } ; END PARAMETER FILE========================================= ; ; ; ; _______________________________________________ ; Fractint mailing list ; Fractint@mailman.xmission.com ; http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fractint ;
