This bud appears to have cubic tendencies in much of its ; nooks and crannies, while other areas appear almost quadratic. ; The name "Bud Menagerie" refers to this zigzagging bud. ; ; The parent fractal is a classic Mandelbrot set caught morphing ; into a cubic Mandeloid. The most obvious feature is Seahorse ; Valley, which has joined its two branches into a kind of narrow ; bridge with a large diamond shaped area of chaos at the center. ; Today's image lies within this diamond. ; ; In addition, the main stem of the parent has spread out into a ; broad area of intricate detail, with several large minibrots ; centered along the ill-defined negative X-axis. I may check ; these minibrots in a future FOTD. ; ; The image calculates in a measly 1-1/2 minutes, so seeing its ; glories will demand little sacrifice. Checking the image on the ; web sites will remove any remaining sacrifice. ; ; The finished image is posted at: ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; Heavy overnight rain ended by late morning here at Fractal ; Central today, followed by a cloudy afternoon with a temperature ; of 64F 18C. The fractal cats approved of the temperature but ; were disappointed by the lack of sun. The fractal humans simply ; made it through the day without a notable event happening. The ; next FOTD will be posted in two days on May 18. Until then, ; take care, and the only sure way to end racism is to stop giving ; it so much attention in the media. ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jimmuth@earthlink.net ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= Bud_Menagerie { ; time=0:01:30.00 SF5 at 2000MHZ reset=2004 type=formula formulafile=basicer.frm formulaname=FinDivBrot-2 function=recip passes=t center-mag=-0.24168893/+0.00468962/1052/1/92.5/0 params=3/3/0/0 float=y maxiter=3600 inside=0 logmap=14 periodicity=6 colors=000`00Y00V00S00P00N00K02H02F02C049047074272\ 770B97GX9KXBOXBOXDIrDKrGMrGOrGGzIIzIKzIMzKRzKTzMVz\ MXzMZzOazOczOezIxz4zzBzzIzzOtzVkzaezgZznRztKzzDzz4\ zz0zz0zz0zz0zz0zz0zz0zz0zz0zz0zz7zzDzzKzzOzvVztazp\ gzkkzgrzcxzZzzVzzRzzMzzIzzBzzGzzIzzMzzOzzTzzVzzZzz\ azzezzgzzkxznvzrrztpzxkzzjzzezzgzzczzazzXzzVzvRxtO\ trMrrInrGkrBgr9er4ar2Zr0Vr0Tr0Or0Mr0Ir0Gr0Kr0Or0Tr\ 0Xr0ar0et0jz0kz0pz0tz0xz0zz0zz0zz0zz0zz0zz0zzBzzMz\ zVzzczxeznrzerzVrxKrpBrg0rZ0rR0rK0rI0rG0rD0rD0rB4r\ 99r7Dr7Ir4Mr2Tr0Xr0ar0er0jr0nr0tr0xr0zr0zr0zr0zr0z\ t0zv0zx0zz0zz0zzBzzjzzezzazzXzzTzzOzzKzzGzzBzz7zz2\ zz0zz0zz7zzGzzOzzZzzgzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz\ zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz\ zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz\ zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz\ zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz } frm:FinDivBrot-2 { ; Jim Muth z=(0,0), c=pixel, a=-(real(p1)-2), esc=(real(p2)+16), b=imag(p1): z=(b)*(z*z*fn1(z^(a)+b))+c |z| < esc } ; END PARAMETER FILE========================================= ; ; ; ; _______________________________________________ ; Fractint mailing list ; Fractint@mailman.xmission.com ; http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fractint ;
