. It's been decades for me, but I must say some of this stuff looks like serious tripping ........ Do you see a big fat psychedelic budda sitting in a little cave with menacing eyes and evil grin? I rendered it at 1400 res, passes=1 for detail http://www.fractal-animation.net/1400.gif I am investigating a zoom-in animation now. Also, the zoom-in to the "Circle13" posted recently is done. Strange - the patterns get SIMPLER as you dive in, and render FASTER! I went to E+18. I don't think I'll post it as it is somewhat repetative and boring, aside from the technical intrigue. Cheers JoTz .

FOTD 04-11-13 (Christmas is Coming [A-7,M-7])
by Jim Muth 04 Nov '13

04 Nov '13

FOTD -- November 04, 2013 (Rating A-7,M-7) Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts: To create today's parent fractal I combined 1.75 negative parts of Z^(-4.5) with 3 negative parts of Z^(-1.75) and added (1/C) on each iteration. Calculating with the reciprocal of C usually turns the fractal inside-out, so that the negative exponents of Z create a lake rather than an island. In today's case however the parent does not follow the rules, and appears as a butterfly- shaped island with large black spots on its wing tips. These black spots are actually bays, and today's image lies deep in the northern valley of the northern bay. My extra coloring effort raised the original humdrum rating of a 5 to a respectable 7. The math rating of a 7 is based on the unusual doubly inside-out parent butterfly fractal. The name "Christmas is Coming" is a statement of fact that can be verified by a glance at the calendar. I chose the name because I felt a strong seasonal mood in the color scheme. The calculation time of 2-1/3 minutes is not too bad, but it is not all that great either. Fear not. The web sites are always close at hand. Relief from time distress may be found at the official FOTD web site at: <http://www.crosscanpuzzles.com/Archives.html> where the finished image is posted. Classier variations are available at: <http://www.emarketingiseasy.com/TESTS/FOTD/jim_muths_fotd.html> <http://www.Nahee.com/FOTD/> <http://user.xmission.com/~legalize/fractals/fotd/about.html> The day began clear and calm, with a chilly temperature of 23F -5C, and progressed through a sunny morning and partly-cloudy afternoon, with a high temperature of 43F +6C. The older fractal cat, Nicholas, spent most of the time sleeping in my favorite chair, while the young kitten, Jasmine, who has almost recovered from her sprained arm, spent the time alternating between sleeping and playing with her catnip mouse. The humans passed the day doing what humans usually do, though I'm not sure average humans spend as much time on fractals as I do. The next FOTD will most likely be posted in 24 hours. If not, it will appear in 48 hours. Until next time, take care, and I will once again place my full faith in science when it can give a reasonably satisfactory reply to the question of why we exist. The usual scientific reply is to claim that the question is meaningless or to refer the questioner to the answers given by religion, even while hypocritically implying that religious belief is only a comforting superstition with no reality behind it. . . . ("We do not invent the things we say," the erudite scientists loudly proclaim, "we only pass on what we find to be true.")

FOTD 03-11-13 (Dolphin Circle [A-6,M-5])
by Jim Muth 04 Nov '13

04 Nov '13

FOTD -- November 03, 2013 (Rating A-6,M-5) Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts: Today's image shows a minibrot in the parent fractal that results when Z^(1.75) is iterated 2 levels up the hyperladder with no function applied. This parent rather resembles a termite half rolled onto its back, with its head facing northwest and a large but isolated minibrot lying just southeast of its tail. Today's scene lies a short distance to the northwest of this isolated minibrot. The name "Dolphin Circle" refers to the brilliant elements arcing around the northeastern perimeter of the central minibrot, which struck me as dolphins with their flukes spread. Since the image was found quickly and I put little effort into the coloring, I could rate the art no higher than a 6. The math worth remains a 5. The calculation time of 1-1/2 minutes is fast enough for all but the most impatient fractalists, who may choose to view the finished image on the web sites. The pre-rendered image is online at: <http://www.crosscanpuzzles.com/Archives.html> and variations are posted at: <http://www.emarketingiseasy.com/TESTS/FOTD/jim_muths_fotd.html> <http://www.Nahee.com/FOTD/> <http://user.xmission.com/~legalize/fractals/fotd/about.html> Near total sun prevailed here at Fractal Central today, but the temperature of 48F +9C kept a chill in the air. The fractal cats took it easy most all day, Nico in the sun on his shelf, Jasmine nursing the leg she sprained when she took too great a leap from a high place. The humans meanwhile passed the day getting the house moderately ready for a winter that the experts say will be on the mild side. Hopefully the experts are right. The next FOTD will be posted in the appropriate time. Until whenever that might be, take care, and it's impossible for aliens to be visiting earth from another star system. The distances are too great and the speed of light is an absolute limit to travel through space. Unfortunately, the aliens have not heard the bad news.

Re: [Fractint] Mandelmania2-3

Albrecht, You've done it again! Those new Mandelmania2-3 images are all very unusual. I especially like the four quadrants -- like North, South, East and West of your 22222-45. The "gold chains" in 22222-53 and 22222-54 are very nice, too. You can see where one compressed color map stops and the next one takes over quite clearly in your 22222-34 -- with the next fractal in effect. Very interesting. - Hal Lane ######################## # hallane(a)earthlink.net ######################## ------------------- Albrecht posted: ----------- Author: Albrechtx Date: 2013-11-02 04:12 -400 To: fractint Subject: [Fractint] Mandelmania2-3 Hi, : if you check the mandelmania2 folder in Dropbox you?ll find some more images not accounted for as yet.

FOTD 01-11-13 (Skeletal Version [A-7,M-5])
by Jim Muth 01 Nov '13

01 Nov '13

FOTD -- November 01, 2013 (Rating A-7,M-5) Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts: Today's image is another one lying in the boomerang-shaped parent fractal that comes about when various portions of Z^2 and Z^4 are mixed. The scene is located in a ragged bud on the southeast edge of the northeast arm, but closer to the X-axis than was the previous image. I named the image "Skeletal Version" because of its overall skeletal lacework appearance. With a rating of a 7, the art worth, mostly due to the brilliant coloring, is adequate, though the math value remains an average 5. The biggest drawback is the calculation time of 14-3/4 minutes, which will seem more like 3 hours for those who choose to watch the image slowly unfold on their screens. My advice is to view the image, already calculated and posted on the web sites. The FOTD web site may be accessed at: <http://www.crosscanpuzzles.com/Archives.html> Variations are posted at: <http://www.emarketingiseasy.com/TESTS/FOTD/jim_muths_fotd.html> <http://www.Nahee.com/FOTD/> <http://user.xmission.com/~legalize/fractals/fotd/about.html> The day began with wind and rain, but by 10am the rain ended, the clouds blew away and the sun appeared, leading to a sunny afternoon with an unusually warm temperature of 68F 20C. The fractal cats lounged on the floor during the afternoon, when the sun is strongest in the southwest window. I think Nico is still trying to decide if he will let Jasmine share the large sunny window shelf with him. The humans had an average day. The next FOTD will probably not be posted until two days from now, on November 3. Until then, take care, and wouldn't it be great if religion and politics suddenly made some kind of sense?
