Today's multi-armed gizmo is a mandelbrot with P1 values perturbed. Yup it's sparkly all right and a anti-aliased version is on the way. Today's fractal and my previous post de-sparkled ready made at http://maxitersfractalfollies.blogspot.com. Want a distorted parent brot real quick? Generate a default mandelbrot then bring up the Y screen and vary the inversion values. Varying the inversion values is also available through the evolver function. fract446.gif { ; perturbed mandelbrot ; blank ; calctime 0:12:11.83 ; created Sep 28, 2010 ; Fractint Version 2004 Patchlevel 9 reset=2004 type=mandel passes=1 center-mag=-0.04316171745374735/-0.64653210566350040/702.2363 params=-0.08005005035554064/-0.184606463820307 float=y maxiter=1500 inside=0 logmap=23 colors=0009et8Zp6Sk4Lg2Eb06Y06W07U08R09P0AM0BK0CH0EI0GJ0IK0KM0MN0PP0RP0T\ P0VP0XP0_P0aP0cP0eP0hP0iO0jN0kM0mL0nK0oJ0pI1rH1sG1tF1uE1vD1xC1xC1wC1vD1v\ D2uD2tE2tE2sF3rF3rF3qG3pG4pG4oH4nH4nI4mI5lI5lJ5kJ5jJ6jK6iK6hL6hL7gL7fM7f\ M7eM8dN8dN8cO8bO8bO9aP9`P9`P9_QAZQAZRAYRAXRBXSBWSBVSBVTCUTCTUCTUCSUCRVDR\ VDQVDPWDPWEOXENXENXEMYFLYFLYFKZFJZGI_EGXCFTAEQ8CN6BK4AG28D58D97DD7EH6EL6\ EO5FS5FW4G_4Gc3Gf3Hj2Hn2Hr1Iv1Iz0Jw0Jt0Iq0Hm1Gj1Fg1Fd1E`2DY2CV2BS2BO3AL3\ 9I38F37B46824935A46C46D46F46G46I46J46L46M46O46P46R46S46U46W45X57Z68_7Aa8\ Bb9DdAEfBGgCHiDJkEKlFMnGNoHPqIQsKSsKQsKOsLMtLKtLHtMFtMDtMBtN9uN7uN4uO2uO\ 0uR0uV0uY0ua0ud0ug0uk0un0ur0uu0tr1so3rm4qj5pg6od8nb9m_AlXCkUDiSEhPFgMHfJ\ IeHJdELcBMb8Na6O`3Q_0RW0VT0WR0XO0YL0ZK0YK0XJ0WJ0VI0UI0TH0SH0SG0RF0QF0PE0\ OE0ND0MD0LC0KB0LA1M91N82P72Q63R53S44U34V25W06Y1Da3Kf5Rj } Roger Alexander
