August 23, 2010: Bio-Morph on the Move Aug. 22
Aug. 24 2010 FOTD Home
 Rating 7.5

biomorph

Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts:

Today's scene features beyond a doubt the most unlikely minibrot I have ever stumbled upon.  The image is located in the East Valley area of the large minibrot on the main stem of the parent fractal, which is a grossly oversized Mandelbrot set with deep personality problems.

(For a very interesting trip, reset the logmap to zero and take the trip back out to the parent M-set.  The scenery along the way is quite unusual.)

The name "Bio-Morph on the Move" probably arose when I noticed that the image somewhat resembles a fantastic bacteria.  The rating of a 7-1/2 is totally earned by the shape of the image.  I put almost no effort into the coloring.  The calculation time of 7-1/3 minutes is admittedly a bit slow.

Sunday here at Fractal Central began with a steady rain, but the rain came to an end before noon, after adding up to just over 1 inch or about 3cm.  While the rain fell, the fractal cats enjoyed the dryness they found indoors.  By 3pm the sky cleared and the sun appeared which sent the temperature to a pleasant 82F 28C.

The latter part of the day was as uneventful as the first part.  The next FOTD will be posted in 24 hours.  Until then, take care, and every time I dream I'm in the fourth dimension, I remember only three-quarters of the dream when I wake up.
