The parent fractal that results is in two parts -- ; a Mandelbrot set rotated 180 degrees and an extra Mandeloid on ; the X-axis some distance east of the M-set. ; ; At first glance, this Mandeloid does not appear critical, but ; a closer check will reveal that it is filled with perfect ; minibrots. Today's image lies near the tip of one of the ; filaments extending from the eastern end of the main spike of ; the extra Mandeloid. ; ; The name "Sly Trickery" is a comment on the rendering method, ; where instead of the usual outside=iter, I reset the outside to ; 'tdis', which creates the effect of terraces surrounding the ; central minibrot. ; ; This trickery took a full point from the art worth, dropping it ; to a 7. The overall effect is not in the math, it is in the ; program. The math aspect is worth only a 6. ; ; The calculation time is a very fast 45 seconds, but the ; inconvenience of setting up and running the parameter file still ; exists. ; ; A quick trip to one of the web sites will eliminate this chore ; and make life easier. The web sites may be accessed at: ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; The day began with fog, but when the fog cleared off around 9am, ; it led to a perfect day with total sun and a temperature of 70F ; 21C. The fractal cat enjoyed the conditions fully, then retired ; to my favorite chair to spend the afternoon sleeping. The ; humans passed the day as just one more in a near endless string ; of similar days. ; ; The next FOTD will be posted in a number of hours. Until the ; number is revealed, take care, and before you look to the light ; for enlightenment, be sure it is the right light. Remember that ; the world is filled with wrong lights. ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jimmuth@earthlink.net ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= Sly_Trickery { ; time=0:00:45.00 SF5 at 2000MHZ reset=2004 type=formula formulafile=basicer.frm formulaname=MandelbrotMix3a function=ident center-mag=-1.752840469303519/+0.0457707436589533/\ 3.507371e+009/1/-175/0 params=1/2/0.2/3/0.1/4/0.04\ /5/-2.445428353012/0 float=y maxiter=1500 inside=0 outside=tdis periodicity=6 mathtolerance=0.05/1 colors=000IUJLUJOVKRVLVWLYWM`XNcXNfYOiYPlYPdURYQTQ\ MUJIWBEY4AZBE_HH_NL_UO`_S`eV``ZYWbWSfTNjRInPErM9vK\ 5yIFoSOeaMbbL_cJXdIUeGRfFPfJWYMbPPiGQjHQjIRkJRkJSl\ KSlLTmLTmMUmNUnNVnOVoPWoPWpQXpRXpRKV5IS6GP6EN7CK7A\ I88F86C94A9277000576DF8JN7PS7VY6`c5fh5ln4rt3wy3tp6\ qg9nZBkREhIGe9J91LH0bP0tSKuWUuZaub_v`Zv_XvYVwXUwVS\ wURwRVwOZwLawIjwFswzvwzzwzzwmzwczvZzuUztKzs4ur4tq4\ tp4to4sn4sm4rl4rk4rj4qi4qh4qg5nh5ki6ii6fj7dk7Xk7Pl\ 8Im8Am93n95o9DoCKpEQpHRqJTqMUqOVrRXrTYsWZsY`s`atbb\ tedugeuifugesfdqecocbnbala`j`_hZZgYYeXXcWWaUV`TUZS\ TXRTWKQOEOH7LA1J37K5DL7JM9C4iC4kC4mB5oB5qB5sB5uGAu\ KFuPKuTPuYTuaYufbujguoluzpuziozfnzcmz`lvYkzWjza`zf\ SzlJzqAzv1zq6zmBziGzeLzaQzYUzTZzPczLhzHmzDrz9vzAtz\ BszBrzCqzDpzDnzEmzElzFkzGjzGhzHgzIfzIezJdzJczygzcv\ zavzZvzXvzVuzSuzQuzOuzLuzJuzHuzIqzJnzKkzLhzMdzNazN\ ZzOWzPSzQPzRMzSJzSGzTHzTI } 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 ;
