In tonight's fractal we find Dr. J fooling around again with Paul Derbyshire's formula. He has generalized it, Eqn 1, by making the constant 2 a parameter. Figure 1 shows what he calls Mickey Mouse, a two eared Mandelbrot set resulting from putting the constant to 3.
1) z := ez+c(z+p)-2
Shooting off from the ears are two small 'normal' Mandelbrot midgets.
Figure 1. Mickey Mouse.
Stay warm,
