Fractal
visionaries
and enthusiasts:
Today's image lies in the debris-filled radical of a minor bud on the
northwest shore line of the large period-2 bud of the Mandelbrot
set. The image lies at the extreme limit of the range of
conventional math, which makes it a very fast one. In fact,
the
magnitude is so great that breakdown is already appearing, but due to
the low contrast along the band edges, it is not very noticeable.
The rating of a 6-1/2 includes a half-point for the coloring, and even
this rating might be a bit liberal, considering the small amount of
effort I put into the color palette.
The name "The Inns and Outs" is a play on words inspired by the
filaments in the image that flow into the large magenta areas then flow
out again.
The calculation time of 13 seconds is about as fast as images
get. So if the result of the calculation is disappointing,
little
time will have been wasted.
Heavy clouds and occasional rain made the conditions less than ideal
here at Fractal Central today. The temperature of 55F 13C
kept
the fractal cats in cool weather mode, while the humans, always cool,
had an uneventful day.
The next in the unending but not eternal series of FOTD's will be
posted in 24 hours. Until then, take care, and how many times
does the phrase 'could it be' appear in those UFO shows.
(IMO, interstellar aliens visiting earth in their interstellar space
ships are even less likely than ghosts. Ghosts have never
been
proved to be impossible. They merely show that there is much
to
yet be discovered. But the faster-than-light velocities that
would be necessary for aliens to travel the galaxy in physical ships
within a reasonable time, are known to be impossible. And
warp
drive, etc., etc., is a great fantasy. Unfortunately, it's
just a
fantasy.)
