HI, got some time waiting for my flight, so using it to present one more image which is to beautiful to be kept a secret. ; https://www.dropbox.com/s/838eadbt0iq3qdl/35187-4.GIF Albrecht

Does anyone know of a good, preferably free, .wav to .mid converter for Windows?

Fractint triumph.
by John Wilson 07 Sep '15

07 Sep '15

Been playing madly with my machines—got my Asus Chromebook to run DOS! How? Using a DosBox installation. Why? So I can run Fractint in there. The machine runs for 12 to 15 hours between charges—no hard drive to drain the battery. So I can play Fractals in the coffee shop or read a book! Offline. Fractint seems quite fast, and I have some adjustments yet to make. Now I'm ready for that slacker, Jim Muth, to fulfill his promises. ☺ John W.

> Is there a mathematical formula, something the fractint parser could use? "I found what appears to be the/a calculation here:" http://phelafel.technion.ac.il/~orcohen/butterfly.html That page says: "The code for this project was *written in MATLAB* and can be found here." http://phelafel.technion.ac.il/~orcohen/butterfly/code.zip I looked at the code and, clearly, it's not "fractint ready". The formulas they wrote appear to be organized as subroutines and function/subroutine calls to the MATLIB library. Fractint doesn't support function/subroutine calls. It's possible that the subroutines they wrote could be "unrolled" and code written to provide the MATLIB functions that they called...

Tony, > Any Fractint code for rendering this? I don't have any. You might try searching for Fractint-compatible code an non-Fractint program web sites (UltraFractal, etc.) I just tried a couple of searches (use the quotes to keep the two words together during the search): calculate "hofstadter's butterfly" code to calculate "hofstadter's butterfly" Since: ... "In physics, Hofstadter's butterfly is a mathematical object ... describing the theorised behaviour of electrons in a magnetic field." ... (Wikipedia) I'm not likely to be able to derive the equations myself... http://tinyurl.com/Hofstadters-butterfly-spotted or: http://physicsworld.com/cws/article/news/2013/may/15/hofstadters-butterfly-… gives a general overview of the calculation: "Hofstadter encountered a difficulty when considering electrons exposed to a magnetic field while moving in a 2D lattice. The problem lies in the fact that electrons respond to an applied magnetic field by swimming in circles at the cyclotron frequency. However, the orbital motion of the electrons is quantized in terms of a frequency that is defined by the properties of the crystal lattice. The presence of these two, often incommensurate, frequencies means that Hofstadter's calculation of electron energy levels yielded some bizarre results. Hofstadter tried to make sense of this difficulty by plotting the *wave function* of the electron versus a parameter related to the ratio of the two frequencies. The plot produced a stunning fractal pattern that looks like a butterfly." I found what appears to be the/a calculation here: http://phelafel.technion.ac.il/~orcohen/butterfly.html Let me know if you find some code. - Hal Lane ######################## # hallane(a)earthlink.net ######################## -----Original Message----- From: Fractint [mailto:fractint-bounces@mailman.xmission.com] On Behalf Of Tony Hanmer Sent: Thursday, August 13, 2015 12:58 AM To: Fractint and General Fractals Discussion <fractint(a)mailman.xmission.com> Subject: Re: [Fractint] I just ran across this fractal object: Hofstadter's butterfly: Beautiful, especially the 2nd version.

Hi, Maybe you have noticed that many audio files cannot be opened. This happened as the beloved Box.com deleted all uploadings incl the source folder as they have ddecided that XP is not supported anymore. But they deleted only the contents so you did not notice unless opened. Now they all are back in top MP3 quality 320KB Dual Channel.. One listening tip: Honky Tonk Blues - 3 parts. Here´s the link again: https://www.cubbyusercontent.com/pl/MultifracArchive/_bb8cd4b47ce347b8a0669… ; Albrecht

I just ran across this interesting fractal object: Hofstadter's butterfly: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hofstadter%27s_butterfly Be sure to see the large version of the 2nd version of the fractal... Yes, this is the Douglas Hofstadter of "Gödel, Escher, Bach" (1979). - Hal Lane ######################## # hallane(a)earthlink.net ######################## --- This email has been checked for viruses by Avast antivirus software. https://www.avast.com/antivirus
