Fractal flame explorer. Just click green flag and wait 10-30 seconds. It's completely random. Each picture is unique. PRESS H FOR HELP! (or press c,v,p, 1-5, 9,0 or r to change something) Give program a chance to show something beautiful - try few times! Try another one if you find current boring - just press: r or p/v or 1-5 If you want to see how variations behave check my another project: http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/17195491/ Variation number (in this project) is equal function number (in plane transformation project)
GALLERY: http://tsulej.deviantart.com/gallery/48861619 TODO: - more variations from JWildfire v.1.32 - small Truchet algorithm correction v.1.31 - if picture is too dark press 'g' for gamma correction v.1.3 - 130 vars v.1.21 - 0 - reset coeffs to Id(x,y)->(x,y) func, 9 - reset coeffs and new vars; parser corrected v1.2 - 120 vars v1.1 - 110 vars v1.03 - probability of functions is set randomly, even more variety v1.02 - flame string parser, press e and put examples from comment, more explanation later v1.01 - flame rescaled and rotated to correspond with Apophysis v1.0 - 100 variations (all flam3 + Truchet), calculations generated with Groovy script, parameters from list to variables (should be a little bit faster) v0.9 - keyboard control and help (press h) v0.8 - progress bar added, decreased number of iterations (300k) v0.7 - vars up to 69, minor bugfix (log -> ln) v0.6 - randomly choose number of function used (from 3 to 4), update of number of variations to 57, some bugs corrected v0.5 - changed color generation: 3 algorithms and predefined set of colors v0.4 - completely rebuilt variation system v0.3 - fourth transformation added v0.2 - changed color generation (using HSL model) Based on this document: http://flam3.com/flame.pdf Transformation number: 4 (randomly from 3 to 4) Coloring: continuous color map (section 4) Variations: 79 (from 1 to 3 per transformation) Randomness: coefficients, color set, variations' number and weights To generate color set HSL model is used (hue is crucial to get different color tones) 300000 points are painted! Thanks for curating this project.
