Fractal of the Day
by Jim Muth

FOTD -- April 23, 1997
Fractal visionaries:
Today's fractal is actually part of the four-dimensional hyper-complex version of the Mandelbrot set. The formula is not my own; I merely added a couple variable parameters to a formula already in FRACTINT.FRM. But the resulting image is most unusual and eye-catching, and well worth the hour it takes to run on a 486 100mhz machine. For those who would like to see the image without tying up their machines, it is posted to ABPF (alt.binaries.pictures.fractals).
The image might add some fuel to the anti-aliasing debate.
