Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts:

Today's new formula, the MultiExpJul, is a Julia version of the MultiExp formula.  It appears today on the list for the first time, so be sure to copy it into your active formula file.

I dashed off the new formula when I started wondering what happens in the Julia sets (not to mention the other four planes) of the corrupted oversized Mandelbrot sets.  Today's image is an example -- an oversized Julia set.

Its Mandelbrot set is an oversized Mandelbrot set corrupted in its depths by order-11 stuff.  The corresponding Mandelbrot point lies at the eastern extremity of the large minibrot on the main spike of the M-set.  This minibrot is well on the way to being an order-11 one.

I named the image "Julia on Strike" when I remembered how few Julia images I explore when compared to the Mandelbrot images.  I can't help it.  Mandelbrot sets are simply more varied.

I rated the image at an 8, perhaps a bit liberally, but it really is a rather interesting, if not superbly colored scene.

The calculation time is a lightning fast 13 seconds, which will pass almost faster than the speed of light.

A mix of sun and clouds with a relatively mild temperature of 45F +7C made today rather pleasant here at Fractal Central.  The fractal cats enjoyed the sun while it was briefly shining and found the heat whenever the sun slipped behind a cloud.  The humans, FL and I, had another uneventful day.

The next FOTD will be posted in 24 hours.  Until then, take care, and be ready for December 21.  I hear rumors that the world will end on that day.
