Fractal is a deep colmputer issu, inertia, the wheel. Are phenomenon relative to fractal reaction. You have received lot's of information from me the last 8 day. and i do not remember having send so much. Anyway the number stop at 32, and 32 is a computer issu number. Sorry for issu but i also observed a wheel phenomenon under my personal computer so if anybody got issu with any of my mailing please let me know. I usually do not post more than twice, i can set in cased the upload of my emulator documentation, system suspected to set computer in motion. Anyway just know that i do my best to contain, but their is a wheel phenomenon on all of us. (also linked with australia to observe something really pretty comming .) i any cased it's fractal. i hope most msg where accompanied by fractal framed. Generaly i'v been slow in april.

FOTD 04-05-12 (Jewel of the Alps [7])
by Jim Muth 05 May '12

05 May '12

FOTD -- May 04, 2012 (Rating 7) Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts: I see that the rating of today's image has dropped back to a 7. Well, I guess we'll just have to do something about that in the days to come. The image lies in the parent fractal that results when 6.6 negative parts of Z^(-1.6) are combined with 2.3 negative parts of Z^(-3.7) and (1/C) is added on each iteration. This parent is a north-south series of large bays, with the southernmost bay being the largest and also the most critical. Today's scene is located on the northeast shore line of this large southern bay, at the point where the buds appear ready to shrink to nothing. The name "Jewel of the Alps" is a misnomer. Neither the image nor the parent bears any resemblance to the Alps. The calculation time of 3 minutes will pass swiftly once the first coarse pass is finished and the awe-struck fractalist can see what is on the way. Find relief from the chore of calculation at the official FOTD web site at: <http://www.crosscanpuzzles.com/Archives.html> View the image in high definition at: <http://www.emarketingiseasy.com/TESTS/FOTD/jim_muths_fotd.html> View all the FOTD images at: <http://www.Nahee.com/FOTD/> Today dawned foggy here at Fractal Central. The fog lifted in the morning, revealing a brilliant blue sky and puffy white clouds. The rest of the day brought a series of thunder-showers alternating with brilliant sunshine. The temperature of 84F 29C kept the fractal cats happy as they watched the falling rain. Then they decided that asking for food would be more profitable. The humans made it through the day with nothing to report other than a decorative tile that FL said flew off the kitchen wall and landed on the other side of the room. (Poltergeist activity perhaps!) The next FOTD will be posted as soon as I have it ready. Until whenever, take care, and successful people never follow the crowd, they set the path for the crowd to follow.

FOTD 03-05-12 (A Deep North Valley [8])
by Jim Muth 03 May '12

03 May '12

FOTD -- May 03, 2012 (Rating 8) Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts: Today's image is the third to come from the parent fractal of two days ago. It is located in the large minibrot on the west branch of the filament extending from the large north bud of the parent. This minibrot is even more distorted than its parent fractal. It looks more like a Z^2.5 minibrot than the Z^2 minibrot that would be expected. The west side of its main bay has two main sub-buds, which are so far apart that a third bud has appeared between them. This new bud is split by a large valley, with today's image located rather deep in this valley. The rating of an 8 indicates that I think the image is pretty good. The name "A Deep North Valley" vaguely describes the location of the image in a minibrot of its parent fractal. The calculation time of 3-1/2 minutes is slightly slow, but nowhere near as slow as yesterday's image. As always, the web sites with the finished images are ready to bring relief. To see the SF-5 finished image, check in at: <http://www.crosscanpuzzles.com/Archives.html> A high-definition rendering is posted at: <http://www.emarketingiseasy.com/TESTS/FOTD/jim_muths_fotd.html> Several thousand images are online at: <http://www.Nahee.com/FOTD/> After a crackling overnight thunder-storm, the day dawned cloudy here at Fractal Central. The clouds broke at midday, leading to a mostly sunny afternoon with a temperature of 81F or 27C. The fractal cats were unsettled by the overnight thunder, but had a relatively quiet day after things settled down. The humans simply made it through the day without incident, which is enough of an accomplishment in itself. The next FOTD will be posted soon. Until that wonderful moment arrives, take care, and if everyone on earth could take care of themselves, what would those who enjoy helping others do to find happiness?

FOTD 02-05-12 (Seahorse Empire [8])
by Jim Muth 02 May '12

02 May '12

FOTD -- May 02, 2012 (Rating 8) Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts: With today's image we begin the climb out of the rut left by that herd of ponderous elephants. The image lies rather deep in the Seahorse Valley area of yesterday's parent fractal, on the bud side of the northern branch. I named the image "Seahorse Empire" because it it filled with miniature seahorses. You will have to look hard to find them however. They are not very obvious. (I have never been as impressed with fractal seahorses as I am with fractal elephants.) The rating of an 8 shows that I am rather satisfied with the image however, which is certainly more colorful if not as mathematically interesting as those elephant images of a week or so ago. The chief fault of the image is its excessive calculation time of 12 minutes. But here is where the FOTD web sites charge to save the day. View the finished image on the official FOTD web site at: <http://www.crosscanpuzzles.com/Archives.html> A high-definition rendering is online at: <http://www.emarketingiseasy.com/TESTS/FOTD/jim_muths_fotd.html> The entire FOTD history may be accessed at: <http://www.Nahee.com/FOTD/> Heavy clouds moved in overnight here at Fractal Central, leading to a rain shower at daybreak. The rain soon ended but the clouds remained for the rest of the day, holding the temperature to a slightly chilly 64F 18C. The fractal cats seemed satisfied with the weather, and spent the day involved in more important things, such as chasing each other around the house and asking for more food. The humans, being human, had more serious things to do, such as finishing the day's work, which they did on schedule. The next FOTD will be posted soon. No exact time is implied. Until next time, take care, and on a recent 'science' show I heard of a theory that the universe might be shaped like a dodecahedron. The announcer then took a soccer ball and said he was holding a dodecahedron, and it might be how the universe is shaped. It's strange. I thought the pattern on a soccer ball is a truncated icosahedron, a figure with 32 faces, (20 hexagons and 12 pentagons), and not a dodecahedron with only 12 pentagons as faces. Are TV 'scientists' truly this ignorant of basic geometry?

FOTD 01-05-12 (Testing 1-2-3 [7])
by Jim Muth 02 May '12

02 May '12

FOTD -- May 01, 2012 (Rating 7) Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts: It's a new month and time for a new theme. To escape the rut of mathematical interest only, I have decided to make May the month of images with artistic value. And there is no formula I know of that creates images more artistic than those created by the workhorse MandAutoCritInZ. To lead off the month, we check the parent fractal that results when Z^(2.01) is subtracted from Z^2 and straight C is added on each iteration. Intuition says that this fractal will be little more than an oversized Mandelbrot set. Well, the fractal is oversized sure enough. A bailout radius of 1100 was neded to fit it all in, but the fractal is far from an everyday Mandelbrot set. This parent fractal actually resembles a Z^(2.5)+C Mandeloid far more than it resembles the classic M-set. In addition, it is rotated 180 degrees so that the side normally on the east lies on the west. Its East Valley has split into two well-defined valleys, with the area between filled with many discontinuities that call for exploration. Its main period-2 bud has sprouted two large sub-buds, each growing its own infinitely divided main spike. Today's image is located in the area of discontinuities between the two large sub-buds. The name "Testing 1-2-3" is what a sound man traditionally says to test the levels of his sound system. It came about when I saw myself setting up for an actual entire month of worthwhile fractals. The rating of a 7 that I gave today's image is not particularly outstanding, but I'm still not totally back into artistic mode. The ratings will (hopefully) increase as the month progresses. The calculation time of 1-2/3 minutes is a fair price for a fractal with a rating of a 7. And the web sites are always there for those who would rather miss the fun of calculation. The finished image is online at: <http://www.crosscanpuzzles.com/Archives.html> A high-definition rendering is at: <http://www.emarketingiseasy.com/TESTS/FOTD/jim_muths_fotd.html> All the past images are at: <http://www.Nahee.com/FOTD/> Today brought a mix of clouds and sun to Fractal Central. The pleasant temperature of 77F 25C made the periods of clouds seem much more pleasant than they might have been. The fractal cat duo was very active, chasing each other up and down the hallway until Nicholas finally ran out of energy. The humans, who never chase each other up and down the hallway, had a more restful day doing routine things. The next FOTD will be posted soon. (I'll no longer mention 24 hours, since the time between postings is irregular, and has rarely if ever been exactly 24 hours.) Until next time, take care, and it looks like it might be fractals all the way down.
