The critical initial value of Z is -0.623.... On ; the surface the parent fractal resembles a quartic Mandeloid ; rotated 180 degrees, but in its depths the parent takes on ; purely quadratic characteristics. ; ; Today's scene lies in a valley in a small distorted bud on the ; northeast shore line of the northwest lobe of the 3-lobed main ; bay of the parent. ; ; I named the image "Intricate Activity" because of the intricate ; patterns surrounding the central minibrot. This intricacy seems ; to be a typical part of images created from four separate ; exponents of Z, and might hold much fractal promise. ; ; The double rating of a 7 indicates that the image is somewhat ; above average, but nowhere near worth the 1/4 hour required to ; calculate it. If I had put more effort into the coloring, I ; might have been able to raise the art rating to a 7-1/2 or even ; an 8. ; ; Save lots of time by viewing the finished image on one of the ; web sites at: ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; The day began foggy and chilly, with a temperature of 43F +6C ; here at Fractal Central. The fog lifted by late morning ; however, leading to a mostly sunny and quite pleasant afternoon ; with a temperature of 72F 22C. The fractal cat enjoyed the ; outside conditions from his safe chair indoors. The humans ; meanwhile passed the day doing human things. ; ; The next FOTD will be posted when it is. Don't wonder about or ; expect anything more specific. Until whenever, take care, and I ; just found a Boltzmann Brain hiding under the basement stairs. ; I wonder where it came from and what it is thinking about. ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jimmuth@earthlink.net ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= Intricate_Activity { ; time=0:15:00.00 SF5 at 2000MHZ reset=2004 type=formula formulafile=basicer.frm formulaname=MandelbrotMix3a function=ident passes=1 center-mag=-0.0652065867037453/+0.6800952186939563\ /7e+011/1/107.5/0 params=-0.1/1/-0.3/2/-0.9/3/-0.8\ /4/-0.6233886628259/0 float=y maxiter=4200 inside=0 logmap=-583 periodicity=6 mathtolerance=0.05/1 colors=000c2Gd3He4If5Jg6Kh7Li8Mj9NkAOlBPmCQoDRpESr\ FTtGUuDLsADq75oACmDIkGOiIUgLSeOQcQOaTM_VK_YIa_GdbF\ gdDjgBmj9pm7sn5vq3ys2xt8wuDwvIvwOuwTuxYtycszhszmks\ acqQWrEPh2Od3Oa3OZ4OV4OS5OP5NL5NI6FizGazKez0Z_KKKO\ HGONLOTPOZTdmSSfQUSPWQNYNMULKKIJ0GH0EG0BE09D06BA4A\ K29U58Z78R97`B7hE6gG6eI5dK5mK6cM5YN4SP3MQ3GS2AT14U\ 16W97YH9_zAazCczDnzFssGpzFlzEhzDjzC`zB_sAYq9Wp8Un7\ Tm6Rl5Pj4Ni2Ni4Mh6Lg8KgAKfCJfDIeFHdHHdJGctXeoXfjcg\ fchaciXcjTckOclJcmBYnFcmJclNckRckVcjZcibcicchccgcc\ eccgcchcciccjcckcclccmccnccoccpccqccrhczhczhczhczh\ czhczhcrhczhczhczhczhczhczhczhczhczmczmczmczmczmcz\ mczmczmgzmfzmdzmczmazm`zm_zmYzmXzrczrczrczrczrczrc\ zrczrczrczrczrczrczrczrczrczrczzhzzhzzhzzhzzhzzhzz\ hzzhzzhzzhzzhzzhzzhzzhzzhzzhzzmzzmzzmzzmzzmzzmzzmz\ zmzzmzzmzzmzzmzzmzzmzzmzzmzzmzzmzzmzzmzzmzzmzzmzzm\ zzmzzmzzmzzmzzmzzmzzmzzmz } frm:MandelbrotMix3a {; Jim Muth z=real(p5), c=fn1(pixel), a=real(p1), b=imag(p1), d=real(p2), f=imag(p2), g=real(p3), h=imag(p3), j=real(p4), k=imag(p4), l=imag(p5)+100: z=(a*(z^b))+(d*(z^f))+(g*(z^h))+(j*(z^k))+c, |z| <=l } ; END PARAMETER FILE========================================= ; ; ; ; _______________________________________________ ; Fractint mailing list ; Fractint@mailman.xmission.com ; http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fractint ;
