Mandelbulber

Just discovered Mandelbulber. Has my fractal in it. I'm pretty chuffed. http://www.mandelbulber.com/ So hope to start adding lots of new images of the same old fractal.

Images et visualisation

Thanks to Jos Leys for his article

My email comment to his article is:-




Although for me it has always been the holy grail even though it lacks the amazing beauty of the nth degree mandelbulbs. It exhibits other properties I would expect to find. 1 axis of symmetry. But most of all is the unique yet similar alternatives. As a model exhibiting complexity it demonstrates both big bang universe, and ever evolving universe which all experience depending on the technique of observation. This is particularly clear in the 4d model although observable in the 3d model.

Cubic

In all this time I've never really looked at different powers.

Here's power of 3

Started to tidy up my website

Well did some much needed attention to my web site.
Scanned some old images.
And looked into using UltraFractal.

Interactive JuliaBristor set map

Added an interactive JuliaBristor set map to my site

You can mouseover the image on my site and explore the juliabistor sets (a little clearer)

First Render by Jos Leys

To my excitement I've seen a render using my maths by someone else, Jos Leys

Also uploaded another vidio to youtube.

Google Code - fractaldimension -java

Just created a Google code page

http://code.google.com/p/fractaldimension/

Contains Java package to create animation frames.

Command line interface using bash scripts to control the frame perimeters

You will need need imagemagick to convert the ppm's to png's
and povray to render the height maps.

Java source contains algorithm for 3D to 5D shapes.
