Re: [Fractint] August 5, 2013: Anti-Minibrot

. Anyone have trouble rendering the August 5, 2013: Anti-Minibrot FOTD? I want to try zoom animation, but all I get is a black screen. The TAB screen shows it is working, but I see nothing. Baffling. .

Thank you Paul, will do. I'll share what I learn here... I suspect plasma, but that's mainly because I don't recall exactly how it's generated. Cheers, Jason

FOTD 13-08-13 (Sublimity For All [A-8,M-7])
by Jim Muth 16 Aug '13

16 Aug '13

FOTD -- August 13, 2013 (Rating A-8,M-7) Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts: With an artistic rating of an 8 and a math rating of a 7, today's image is quite an improvement over yesterday's. The name "Sublimity For All" might be an exaggeration, but it is what came to mind when I shut down my thinking processes. The actual scene lies in the wedge-shaped East Valley of the large minibrot on the fractalized main stem of the (-Z)^(2.003)+C Mandeloid. This is the exact area where the strange rectangle lies in the Julia sets of the (+Z)^(2.003)+(C) Mandeloid. The image has no rectangles in it, but it certainly does have lots of fractal goodies. As an additional bonus, the image calculates in 1-2/3 minutes, not the fastest image of all time, but still fast enough to take the drudgery from the calculation. Total calculation relief is available at the following web sites: <http://www.crosscanpuzzles.com/Archives.html> <http://www.emarketingiseasy.com/TESTS/FOTD/jim_muths_fotd.html> <http://www.Nahee.com/FOTD/> <http://user.xmission.com/~legalize/fractals/fotd/about.html> where the finished image is or soon will be posted. The day here at Fractal Central began with rain, but the rain ended by 9am and the clouds broke by noon, leading to a mostly sunny afternoon with a temperature of 84F 29C. The remaining fractal cat Nicholas, (Nico for short), had a lazy day sleeping on the shelf behind the TV, a pleasant way for a cat to spend a day, but quite boring for humans who want action. The humans were also annoyed by a balky computer. The next FOTD will be posted ultimately. Until that uncertain time arrives, take care, and on a recent TV show about the quirks of the human brain, the word 'brain' was mentioned over two-hundred times, and the word 'mind', not even once. I suspect that a group of skeptical materialists was behind the show, spreading their belief that we are nothing more than the activity of the material of our brains. (The idea is scientific enough, but I would like to see a rational, step-by-step demonstration of the transition from activity in the material world of neurons to ideas in the immaterial world of conscious thought.)

Fractals without iteration or feedback?
by Jason Hine 16 Aug '13

16 Aug '13

Hi all, A friend asked me recently whether there are any fractals (natural or mathematical) which are not constructed by iteration or feedback. I couldn't think of one... any thoughts? I'll ask this question on the philofractal forum if need be. Thanks, Jason

Is Fractint being "moved to a better programming environment"?
by Jason Hine 15 Aug '13

15 Aug '13

Hello all, I was delighting in my discovery of the online searchable Fractint doc (available for years now, probably...) when I (re)encountered a statement on this page: http://www.nahee.com/spanky/www/fractint/drawing_method.html ... in the SOI section, stating the potential for Fractint to be "moved to a better programming environment". I'm curious: Is there a group working to do this? I searched github for fractint but the only hit appears to be a side-effort. I ask both because I'd love to see SOI enabled for zooms deeper than double long precision, and because I'd like to participate in the effort to move Fractint to a better programming environment. Cheers, Jason
