F.O.T.N. (Fractal of the Night) 25 Apr 1998 (Dr. J Distintegrating)


Is Dr. J distintegrating? It looked for a while like Dr. J was coming unglued or at worst disintegrating. If he gets a vision of the distant past or future with the antenna thingi-ma-jig, it might be his pixels going up in smoke. But he has survived his laboratory blowing up and high-speed Car-dioid Fractomobile crashes.  The last vision Dr. J got proved to be nothing more than a severe headache aftershock, but since his situation seems to be getting worse by the day, let's hope he gets something out of this. This experiment was after all, about finding out about Dr. J's origin, not his termination!

Stay calm everyone, it is just the Mad Scientist of FractoSpace, not real 3D space (lucky for you)!

The parameter and formula files for Fractint are included below. Copy them into a quickie.par file for quick loading into Fractint. For longer term use, copy the frm: block into a FotN.frm file. But this time leave off the 'frm:' part.  Then copy the rest (the par parts) into your FotN.par file.
