It is a Mandelbrot midget on the spike (negative real axis), that was carefully chosen. If you look at the midget at -1.75, you'll see that it is associated with the number 3. That is, this midget causes the band of dwell = 3 to dip down toward the axis, and the main cardioid for this midget has periodicity = 3. In a similar fashion, the midget in this deepzoom is associated with 256. It took over 37 hours to compute on a 486DX50, at 320x240 resolution and single pass mode (although the image is symmetric). two56 {;dwell 256 midget by Kerry Mitchell lkmitch@primenet.com reset=1930 type=mandel passes=1 center-mag=-1.9999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999\ 999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999\ 999999999999999999999988958369124178362173165279999331644308055316120970\ 270840859424786314709441797847655533023252895333209618981099216864198315\ 29734837424289096210971806586916814/0.0/7e+305 params=0/0 float=y maxiter=8192 inside=0 periodicity=0 colors=CCC<14>eCegCggCg<14>_CsZCsXDs<12>EJsCKsCMs<13>CmsCosCor<14>CsS<22\ >qsnssossn<21>ssMssKsrK<14>sWCsVCrUCqTC<11>hECgCCgCC<46>cCsbCs`Cs<12>EFs\ CGsCIs<14>Cks<14>CFF cyclerange=0/255 } -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Kerry Mitchell lkmitch@primenet.com -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
