FOTD 19-01-12 (Mystery Theater [8])
by Jim Muth 20 Jan '12

20 Jan '12

FOTD -- January 19, 2012 (Rating 8) Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts: Today's fractal image is a scene on the main spike of its parent fractal, which is an over-sized Mandelbrot set corrupted by order-7 elements. The scene is located just beyond the large minibrot on the main spike, at a magnitude where the minibrots have totally morphed into order-7 ones with 6 bays. These tiny order-7 minibrots are clearly visible, scattered all around the large central minibrot. But in the world of fractals, things do not always go as we expect, and today's image is certainly a good example. I named the image "Mystery Theater" because of the mysterious things happening in it. To begin, the large minibrot has 12 bays, which would make it of order-13, a prime number that exists nowhere in the generating expression. To make things worse, the minibrot is surrounded by 14 elements, which would appear to make it of order-14. My first thought was that the large minibrot is actually a partial merging of two order-7 minibrots. Sometimes this does happen. But if this is the case, the merging in today's image is the most perfect I have yet stumbled upon. With no obvious rational explanation for all the mathematical craziness, the image remains a mystery. All in all, the image fully earns its name. The rating of an 8 is based mostly on the mathematical interest, though the artistic value is not to be ignored. The calculation time of 24 seconds is about as fast as FOTD fractals ever get, and will not test the patience of even the most impatient fractalist. Experience the satisfaction of escaping the task of calculation by viewing the finished image on the FOTD web site at: <http://www.crosscanpuzzles.com/Archives.html> Experience the total bliss of seeing the image in high- definition at: <http://www.emarketingiseasy.com/TESTS/FOTD/jim_muths_fotd.html> And remember to check the entire library of past images at: <http://www.Nahee.com/FOTD/> The brilliant sun that burst forth at sunrise today here at Fractal Central did not last long. By midday, the clouds had moved in, and by afternoon, snow was threatening. The fractal cats were more concerned about the chilly morning temperature of 16F -9C than with the forecast of light snow. They demanded more warmth. FL and I, the local humans, had an uneventful day, which was pleasant to experience but makes dull reporting. The next FOTD will be posted in 24 hours. Until then, take care, and yesterday's question about the island south of Antarctica was indeed a trick question. I occasionally get into discussions about relativity, and have a very difficult time explaining why it is impossible to travel through space faster than the velocity of light. As I try to explain it, trying to travel faster than light is like mounting an expedition to that island. Any effort is bound to fail. There is no such thing as traveling south from the southernmost point on the globe; there is no such thing as traveling through space faster than the highest possible velocity. At the speed of light, space along the direction of motion shrinks to zero. It does this for the same reason that the width of a sheet of paper shrinks to zero when viewed edge-on, and then there is no space left to travel through. If it were possible to go even "faster", one would be traveling through time, not space.

FOTD 18-01-12 (Lurid Revelations [7])
by Jim Muth 18 Jan '12

18 Jan '12

FOTD -- January 18, 2012 (Rating 7) Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts: I'm currently involved in trying to see what can be done with minibrots of the higher orders. In today's image I have taken a minibrot of unlikely order 11 and mixed it with some Z^2 to produce a picture I have named "Lurid Revelations". Now don't get worked up, it's not a scene from a cheap racy novel, it's a lurid red fractal featuring a mighty Z^11 minibrot at the center. As is true with so many of the fractals created by the MultiExp formula, (which I am still working on), the parent fractal is an oversized Mandelbrot set. Today's scene is located on a filament near the 'star' of the period-5 bud on the northwest shore line of the oversized parent M-set. The rating of a 7 is the most I could give the image. The colors are simply too sensationalized for the image to be rated any higher. But even a sensational scene is worth a look, so why not enjoy the action by running the included parameter file. When the image is finished, you'll be glad you did. Save time by viewing the finished image on the FOTD web site at: <http://www.crosscanpuzzles.com/Archives.html> Become happier by viewing it in high-definition at: <http://www.emarketingiseasy.com/TESTS/FOTD/jim_muths_fotd.html> And remember the classic FOTD web site at: <http://www.Nahee.com/FOTD/> Today here at Fractal Central dawned with lots of clouds and a mild temperature of 43F +6C. The clouds cleared away by late morning, leading to a mostly sunny afternoon, but at the same time, a stiff breeze arose from the north, and by afternoon the temperature had dropped to freezing and was continuing to fall. The backward weather left the fractal cats puzzled. They spent an unusual amount of time on their sunny shelf, watching the flurries of leaves scurry by. The humans, who had an uneventful day, passed the time passing the time. The next FOTD will be posted in 24 hours. Until then, take care, and what is the name of the large island just south of Antarctica?

Fractals and Religion
by Jason Hine 18 Jan '12

18 Jan '12

Jim closed his FOTD recently with this: >> Until then, take care and maybe the universe was >> created by a great fractal. (One of these days I'll >> reveal my beliefs about religion, but today is not the day.) I look forward to that day, which, knowing what one can know of Jim from his FOTD (and past Philofractal) offerings, will likely come in its own good time, and it will be well thought out. In the meantime, and to encourage Jim, I'd like to share some of the ideas I've been ruminating on for the past 10+ years -- I actually have old Philofractal posts from the late 90's where I'm tossing some of these ideas around with the then-active members of that list. With much encouragement from a friend, I submitted an abstract and was fortunate enough to get to present my ideas at the 2011 ASA (American Scientific Affiliation, http://network.asa3.org) Conference in Naperville, IL. The abstract is below, followed by a link to a video of my presentation. Two quick disclaimers: 1. I am a Christian, though my non-Christian friends tell me I don't fit their stereotype for Christians, which I take as a compliment. The ASA is a Christian organization. My presentation references stories from the Bible (it also references J.R.R. Tolkien and Stephen Jay Gould). If you hold great disdain for Christianity, you may not enjoy the presentation. That said, I strongly believe the ideas being presented may find resonance with ideas from many religions and philosophies... 2. I don't know if this mailing list is an entirely appropriate venue for religious or near-religious discourse... but I assume our moderator will inform us if I'm out of line. The presentation *is* Fractint-related, as all the illustrations of fractals were generated using Fractint. :-) Ok, enough yammering, here you go. Hope you enjoy, and I look forward to your comments. *Title:* The Fractal Nature of the Spiritual Journey -- A Metaphor by Jason Hine *Abstract:* *Concepts such as hope, despair, grace, love, evil, free will and faith are frequent pillars of religious discussion, but these concepts are rarely the subject of scientific thought. And this is rightly so, for science currently lacks a useful frame of reference for these and other metaphysical concepts. Such a frame of reference, if one were found, could help facilitate conversations between scientific and religious viewpoints. A study of the fractal commonly known as the Mandelbrot set suggests that certain kinds of fractals may be useful as a basis for developing a metaphorical frame of reference in which the concepts of hope, despair, etc. are likened to patterns found near the fractal’s edge. This presentation explores this potential frame of reference, starting with an abbreviated overview of the Mandelbrot set’s construction and mathematical characteristics. By taking some of these characteristics as analogous to certain aspects of the spiritual journey, key representations are developed and fashioned into a metaphorical model. Examining this metaphor reveals it as having several surprising strengths as well as severe limitations. I conclude with thoughts on the metaphor’s possible relevance and usefulness to current science-faith discussions, and I suggest ideas for further exploration.* *Presentation (Zipped WMV, 25Mb): *http://asa3.org/ASAradio/ASA2011Hine.zip -- Cheers from Mr. Tumnus!
