r/fractals

Low Iteration Mandelbulb created in Blender Octane Edition

I wonder what the dark side meant?

Made many moons ago with a program called "Sterling".

Found at (-1.7492133198680342, -0.00015002031659859644) with a height of 0.0000000000038.

This is a fractal set calculated with quaternions, which makes it 4-dimensional. Therefore, one has to calculate a 3-dimensional slice, which is displayed using ray tracing.

Created with the very old app Fractal Explorer.

Further exploration in odd elliptic splits variants. This is using earlier polar splits with another splitted elliptic, whole thing is in spherical loonie, which is usually used with gnarls. I guess next step is to combine these instead of just having stuff build on top of things. Will see how it goes..

So this is Apophysis7x flame, about 5 iterations with many transforms, rendered with Chaotica 2.2.2 because 2.2.3 is broken and software is abandoned. At least this new Affinity, photoshop replacement, works great for getting multiple detail pictures extracted and saved at same time.

Ultra Fractal.

my initial implementation of flame fractal rendering , which was calculated , shaded , post processed and saved as jpeg by new version of my 4kfract program :

Archive containing the application is in the premium download. After extracting content of beta version of into separate folder, then can try serialization of chaos flame fractal by starting 4kfractFlam.bat. You can run 4kfract3d.bat script to generate sample opengl 3d view of set of randomly iterated fractal projections, it also saves more detailed flat and iso versions of those fractals as jpg files in that folder.

Can also run 4kfractui.bat to use web browser based ui cgi form to utilize most of capabilities of the application to create fractal images using preset or custom complex number formula. Most settings are explained on the page. For cgi form to remember advanced detailed settings uncheck quick mode box up top
