This parent came about ; when I infected a Mandelbrot set with cubic energies, but added ; much less antibiotic than usual. ; ; In the FinDivBrot-2 formula the value of the real(p1) parameter ; determines the order of the energy infecting the basic M-set. ; The imag(p1) parameter works almost like a flu shot. Its ; absolute value determines the resistance of the M-set to the ; infecting energy. Today's value of negative 3 gives very little ; protection. ; ; I named the image "The Cubic Minute" because the scene is ; obviously of a cubic nature and also calculates in close to a ; minute. The art rating of an 8 reflects the extra time I spent ; on the coloring. I leave it to the individual viewer to decide ; if the effort was successful. The math value of a 6 is close ; to average, since there is really nothing new in the math aspect. ; ; The image calculates in a minute on the average machine. The ; time required to check the finished image on the web sites is ; about the same. ; ; Check the pre-calculated images at: ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; Heavy clouds hung over Fractal Central all day, but the high ; temperature of 37F +3C kept things reasonably comfortable. With ; snow and severe cold on the way however, I can't say how long ; the marginal comfort will continue. The fractal cats spent some ; time chasing each other up and down the hallway, and the rest of ; the time asking for food and sleeping, while the fractal humans ; passed the time doing what all good fractal humans do. ; ; Unless something unforeseen happens, the next FOTD fractal will ; be posted in 24 hours. Until then, take care, and if our ; western hi-tech way of living is as great as many seem to take ; for granted, why do we have such a problem with the mind- ; altering drugs that serve only as a way of coping with the ; stresses of hi-tech reality? ; ; ; Jim (what would we go back to?)
