The archive links for the fractint list are working, but the list archives appear not to be updating. I have asked support about this. While I don't think the low traffic is the problem, we might be advised to post a few more messages in case there's some threshold before newer messages get archived. Tim

Stephen Hawking

The recent passing of Stephen Hawking has filled me with a great sense of loss. He was an unbelievable inspiration and explorer of the universes - both inward and outward. This audio fractal, which I first created in 1999, is dedicated to him. "Requiem" <https://sites.google.com/site/audiofractals/mp3-files/requiem-1999> Headphones or high quality speakers are recommended. Enjoy!

Is the error message you get if you call the archives. That means "Gone for good", nothing else. Going to delete my archives, everybody who wants to download them can do it today. Will use the space for my musical relations and exchange fractals privately. Albrecht

22222-29 is the latest item in the NEW folder. Fractal Art ? Judge yourself. If you have DOSBX or Virtual XP you can create the PAR and try own zooms or color variations. ; https://my.pcloud.com/publink/show?code=kZPUCq7Z2R5HjipmhlhitVKhz1hCJFUeugfy ; Albrecht

As you have seen, the time of "pretty" pictures has ended. My theme is and remains interaction -unique and infinite- and part of it is incest and abortion. I f you look carefully you´ll see that some parts of a mandel stilll exist but it´s a new kind with completely different descendants, but similar to each other and building a new generation - evolution ! ; I will stick to my colormap that makes it easy to detect further deployments ; Albrecht ; https://my.pcloud.com/publink/show?code=kZPUCq7Z2R5HjipmhlhitVKhz1hCJFUeugfy ;

22222x34

Hi, if time allows I return to my fractint adventures. Lately saw in one of my Mandelzoom videos that most all of the details appear in my mandelcloud zooms. But they are available just by searching for them and you dont have to wait for them. My theme is ithe interaction of mandel instances and not deep zooming. This kind of exploration of course is possible only with the multifractal software, where up to 5 mandel generations are calculated, each one inside of the previous or in addition to others in the neighborhood. No one has ever done that before or is able to repeat it. As it seems no other Fractint Version can do it, Fractint for windows or any other one, Only the virtual XP box from Oracle which does it´s duty reliably since many years, even with the latest Win10 updates. Thank you, Tim for making the archives work again ! ; Having said that, I would be stupid, just to quit and no one will ever know about it. If there is any doubt about the complexity of the basic mandel formula and it´s part in the evolution I have done my part to remove it. The latest image in the NEW section of my archives is 22222x34 and there is a new splash screen, just for fun. ; https://my.pcloud.com/publink/show?code=kZPUCq7Z2R5HjipmhlhitVKhz1hCJFUeugfy ; Albrecht
