This bit ; of mayhem is a result of the ridiculous bailout radius of ; 10^100, better known as one-googol, which has been set by the ; imag(p3) parameter. ; ; A flat screenfull of all-inside stuff can be quite boring, but ; the active inside fills can often bring these 'dead' images to ; life. In today's image the 'bof61' fill does the job. ; ; The formula behind the madness subtracts 2.72 parts of Z^(-2.7) ; from 8.5 parts of Z^(-1.6) then adds (1/C) on each iteration. ; This creates a parent fractal with X-axis symmetry, which ; resembles a Mandelbrot set rotated 180 degrees with its west end ; facing east and its normal east end replaced by a large open ; bay. A kind of double crescent moon lies in this open area, and ; today's scene lies in one of these crescents. ; ; The name "In Search of Reality" does not refer to one of the ; current crop of contrived 'reality' TV shows. It refers to the ; questionable reality of things like fractals, sub-atomic ; particles, and of course ghosts. ; ; The calculation time of 2-3/4 minutes is slow enough to make the ; calculation a bother. But the web sites can bring a miracle ; cure. ; ; Forget about calculating the image on that DOS-challenged ; machine. Let me be the one who does the work. Check the ; finished image on the FOTD web site at: ; ; ; ; A high-definition rendering is posted at: ; ; ; ; Back images without limit are online at: ; ; ; ; The weather was near perfect here at Fractal Central today, with ; a temperature of 82F 28C and a Photoshop-blue sky decorated with ; the kind of clouds that have faces in them. The fractal cat ; slept all afternoon while the humans went on a short trip in the ; surrounding countryside. ; ; The next FOTD will be posted before too long, most likely within ; 24 hours. Until then, take care, and skeptics know that truly ; paranormal things such as ghosts are all in the mind. At the ; same time, some people have already experienced the paranormal. ; But it's a trick of their minds, and they must be shown their ; understandable mistakes. To hear scientific claims that make ; ghosts and hauntings seem like everyday normality, they should ; talk with a cosmologist or a physicist. ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jimmuth@earthlink.net ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= InSearch_OfReality { ; time=0:02:45.00 SF5 at 2000MHZ reset=2004 type=formula formulafile=basicer.frm formulaname=MandAutoCritInZ function=recip float=y center-mag=+0.49734043483/+0.60763443273/197902/1/\ -60/0 params=8.5/-1.6/-2.72/-2.7/0/1e+100/0/0 maxiter=1400 inside=bof61 logmap=yes periodicity=10 colors=00084N64L45K25I05H3AJ5EL7IM9MOCQPEURGYTIaUL\ eWNiXPmZRq_QtaPwcPzdOyeNxeNwfMwfMvgLugLthKthJsiJri\ IqjIqjHpkHokGnlFnlFmmElmEknDknDjoCioCioAbc8XT6QH4K\ 68O8CSAFWCJZEMbGQfIUiKXmM`qOctQaqR`oS_mTZjUXhUWfVV\ cWUaXS_XRXYQVZPT_OQ`MO`LMaKJbJHcHFcGCdFAeE8fD6fH5e\ K5eN5eR5dU5dX5d`5cc5cf5cj5bm5bp5bs5bV8e7BgEHjLNmST\ pZZreduljxspzrmwrktrhrrfordlrajr_gqXdqVbqT_qQXqOVq\ LSqJPqHNnIOlIPiIQgIRdISbITfbZpUzgJzTJXRJYOZZML_YVo\ `_uEKbCZc9Kd7YeTQfccchhh9OiHgiQWiYcjTYjnmzvoztijrh\ jqhjogjY_johqkmwiejgdjfdjdcjbbjlcj`ijZajYajY`kY`lZ\ aniYlY`kY`jY`iY_hY_gY_fdVeY_dXZbXZaXZ`XZ_XYZ`TYXYX\ XYW50A50A50A50A50A00A50A50A51F52E`I0dK0hP0jU0lY0n_\ 0pa0rc0te0um0vj0wn0xr0zv0zz0sv0mr0cmQUhVLe`Ffe9gj3\ ho7`l8OiADfC3cE4dF5dG6eI7eJ8fK9fMmgNBgOBhQChRDiSEi\ UFjVGjWHkYIkZJl_Jl`LhaNebPbcQ_dSXdUUeWRfXOgZLh`Iia\ EhaFgaGfaHeaIdaJcaKcaLbaM } frm:MandAutoCritInZ {; Jim Muth a=real(p1), b=imag(p1), d=real(p2), f=imag(p2), g=1/f, h=1/d, j=1/(f-b), z=(((-a*b*g*h)^j)+(p4)), k=real(p3)+1, l=imag(p3)+100, c=fn1(pixel): z=k*((a*(z^b))+(d*(z^f)))+c, |z| < l } ; END PARAMETER FILE========================================= ; ; ; ; _______________________________________________ ; Fractint mailing list ; Fractint@mailman.xmission.com ; http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fractint ;
