Fractal
visionaries
and enthusiasts:
I spent almost no time on today's image. Most all day I was
occupied with optimizing the fractal computer for the internet.
But I did find a moment to dredge up an image that is just good enough
to reach FOTD status.
The parent fractal came about when I combined 0.1 part of Z^10 with 1
part of Z^1.5 and added straight C. This parent resembles a
Mandelbrot set rotated about 180 degrees, with a large open area beyond
its East Valley (in this case, West Valley) and a curly filament
serving as its main stem. The image is located on this curly stem.
The name "Zippy the Minibrot" refers to the extreme speed of the image,
which at a mere 6 seconds, is one of the fastest of all time.
Once again, I could not give the image an honest rating.
Partly cloudy skies, lower humidity and a temperature of 77F 25C made
Thursday an ideal day here at Fractal Central. At least the
fractal cats must have thought so. They deserted their cool spot
on the kitchen floor and set up residence on the living room
carpet. My day was average.
Unless I get totally involved with the new computer arrangement, the
next FOTD will be posted in 24 hours. Until then, take care, and
see you soon.
