hypermandel amok

Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts:  

Today's image shows the HyperMandelbrot set run amok.  The scene lies deep in the main bay of a minibrot located in a period-60 radical on the northern edge of the west branch of the valley leading to the large period-3 bud on the northern side of the main bay of the Mandelbrot set.  The name "HyperMandel Amok" expresses the growing nonsense in the entire current 'hyper' theme.

As is usually the case with these hyper-features inside Mandelbrot buds and minibrots, the periodicity of the scene makes no sense at all.  But then what is the need of sense when the image is so striking that the art rates an 8 and the math rates a 9.  In fact, I was thinking of rating the math at an apocalyptic 10, but eased the rating down a bit to leave room for possible improvement without going to an artificial rating of 11.

The most annoying aspect of the image is its abysmally slow calculation time of 20 minutes, which can be bypassed by checking the finished image posted to the FOTD web sites.

Brilliant sun and a temperature of 59F 15C made today seem like the proper introduction to spring.  The fractal cats enjoyed the sun to the fullest, while the fractal humans enjoyed it also.

The next FOTD will be posted before too long.  Until whenever, take care, and if a certain man has seven daughters and every daughter has one brother, how many children does the man have?
