 Rating Low

new stuff

Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts: 

Today's image has a low rating.  Since I did not wish to embarrass myself, I did not state exactly how low, but it would be fair to state that the rating would be notably less than average.  (A rating of 4 would be a good guess.)

The image lies within the tiny bit of debris inside the Mandelbrot bud that appeared in the background of yesterday's image.  Today's image is characterized by a near-hopeless nest of zigzag filaments overlying a totally chaotic background.  The filaments are much like those found in the 'Siegel Disk' area of the Mandelbrot set.

The name "New Stuff" is a bit misleading, since there is little new stuff in the image, which is really only a casual glance of what lies within a strange little eye-shaped bit of unevaporated debris.  The calculation time of 8-1/2 minutes is a bit too much to pay for the image, but once again, the FOTD web sites charge to the rescue, saving both time and frustration.

Despite a few minor clouds here at Fractal Central today, the day brought the impression of a sunny one.  The temperature of 68F 20C was quite pleasant for the start of October, and the fractal cats took full advantage of it in their southwest window as they watched the falling leaves outside.

The humans made it through another day with nothing out of the ordinary happening, which is boring to report but quite pleasant to experience in person.  The next FOTD will be posted whenever it is.  Until then, take care, and be of sound constitution, but keep the sound level under control.  You wouldn't want your noisy constitution disturbing the peace.
