FOTD -- September 05, 2005 (Rating NA) Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts: Most of today's discussion appears in the philofractal version of the FOTD. Today's image is located in the fractal that results when Z^0.6 and Z^4 are combined and C is added. I have not given it a name, I have given it only a date for catalog purposes. The image was rendered with the outside set to 'tdis'. Since I put very little effort into the coloring, I gave the image no rating. The render time is a very fast 3/4 of one minute. And if this is not fast enough, the already-rendered GIF image has been posted to the FOTD web site at: <http://home.att.net/~Paul.N.Lee/FotD/FotD.html> The weather was perfect here at Fractal Central on Sunday. The fractal cats were perfect also. Today is starting perfect again, which is very good news for the duo. It looks like a slow contemplative day coming up for me. Some of my contempla- tions will appear in tomorrow's philofractal FOTD. Until then, take care, and be optimistic.

Hi Guys, Can SKS please help me find a copy of Jim's philofractal FOTD post from yesterday? I cannot seem to fing an archive + joining the digest list hasn't helped either. Thanks in advance.

FOTD -- September 04, 2005 (Rating None) Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts: Most of today's discussion appears on the philofractal list. Today's image is a scene in the fractal that results when 0.3 part of Z^4 is subtracted from Z^2 and C is added. The bubbly effect was achieved by rendering the image with the inside set to 'bof60'. Since I do not feel like thinking of names, I gave the image a date instead of a name. I gave it no rating. The render time is slightly slow, but the finished GIF image is available on the FOTD web site at: <http://home.att.net/~Paul.N.Lee/FotD/FotD.html> The weather is absolutely perfect, and is forecast to remain perfect for the rest of the week. Maybe the perfect weather will take the fractal cats' minds off of the suffering of the cats in the Gulf Coast area. The next FOTD, which will be lots of philosophy and little fractal talk, will appear in 24 hours. Until then, take care, and keep looking forward.

FOTD 03-09-05 (03-09-05 [NA])

03 Sep '05

FOTD -- September 03, 2005 (Rating NONE) Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts: The fractal part of today's discussion is very brief. The part that appears in only the philofractal version is far longer and rather controversial. Today's image shows a scene in the fractal created by the formula (Z^2)+(0.3*Z^4.1)+C. I gave it no rating and no name. It renders in 15 minutes from the included parameter file. The finished image is available on the FOTD web site at: <http://home.att.net/~Paul.N.Lee/FotD/FotD.html> A political-philosophy rant appears at this point in the philofractal version. On the cat front, the weather on Friday was perfect and the cats had a great day. The next FOTD will appear in 24 hours, but be warned, politics is still the hot topic around F.C., and I am not in the mood to remain silent. Until next time, take care, and walk with fractals.

FOTD 02-09-05 (Still More Storm Clouds [7])
by Jim Muth 02 Sep '05

02 Sep '05

FOTD -- September 02, 2005 (Rating 7) Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts: I'm not in much of a writing mood this morning, so I'll merely explain that today's image is a scene in the parent fractal associated with the third critical point of the expression that was used to create the previous two days' images. This critical point is -0.4401695778. This parent fractal is unlike the previous two associated with the expression, which were shapeless blobs with only hints of Mandel features. Today's parent is shaped like a near-normal Mandelbrot set, with the addition of large open areas attached to the ends of the filaments. As I hinted yesterday, today's image has been named "Still More Storm Clouds". It is actually the best of the three 'storm' images. I rendered the scene with the 'outside' parts set to 'tdis', which IMO makes the most of the scene. The render time on my ancient machine is a not-too-slow 5-3/4 minutes. This is just a little longer than the time needed to go online and download the already-rendered GIF image from the FOTD web site at: <http://home.att.net/~Paul.N.Lee/FotD/FotD.html> My mood today is more political than philosophical, so I have counted to 10,000 and will write nothing. But the real philosophy is still brewing quite strongly, and when the time is right, I will post it with no holds barred. Near perfect weather here at Fractal central on Sunday made for near ideal cats. They went outside at 11am, returned at 3pm for a snack, then went back outside until nightfall. My day was philosophic but otherwise uneventful. Today is starting the same as yesterday. The next FOTD will appear in 24 hours. Until then, take care, and it's always darkest before the dawn.
