July 18, 2012: The Oblate View | July 14 | July 19 | 2011 | FOTD Home |
Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts:
We're
back!
Let the banners wave and the trumpets blare. And now that
this
little announcement is out of the way, let's get to the fractal.
There are Mandelbrot images and there are Julia images. And
the
two varieties look pretty much alike. There are also Oblate,
Rectangular, Parabolic and Elliptic images, and these also look much
like the Mandelbrot and Julia images.
Today's scene returns us to the infinitely-divided main stem of the
(-Z)^(2.000001)+C Mandeloid in the area just east of the largest
minibrot. But this time we rotate our view 90 degrees around
the
imag(C) axis, to an orientation I named the Oblate, which is defined by
the imag(C) and real(Z) axes.
What we find here is more symmetrical railroad tracks. There
is
no possibility of dredging up a minibrot however, for in this
orientation the Mandelbrot stuff, including the minibrots, has been
stretched to infinity in the real(Z) direction.
But the lower-iteration stuff remains, forming itself into new and
sometimes even more interesting patterns. In today's image we
find a nearly symmetrical arrangement of rails surrounding a prominent
star-like object at the center of the frame.
The name "The Oblate View" refers to the direction in which we slice
the scene. I could not give the image a rating, since the
same
color palette has been used so often in recent FOTD's.
The calculation time of one minute will pass swiftly for those who
choose to calculate.
The heat was on here at Fractal Central today. The
temperature of
97F 36C was equalled by the humidity, causing the fractal cats to take
to the coolest places they could find and stretch out to their full
lengths. The humans, still recovering from a few days of rest
and
relaxation, took it equally easy.
Until whenever, take care, and if we decide to seriously fight climate
change, the battle will be a long and very expensive one, with great
sacrifices required. Who, I wonder, will bear the brunt of
the
battle cost. I doubt it will be the wealthy one-percent.
