A Kaliset Julia with several kinds of shape.

Awesome pic, can you share the Julia constants?

nice render!

Thanks! It's got "triangle" symmetry -- I'll put a UF formula at the bottom, but the basic iteration is apply a symmetry transform (usually a boxfold or something along the lines), then z -> abs(cz + 1) + 1/abs(cz + 1) where c is the Julia seed and abs(z) is not |z| but rather folds z into the upper right quadrant. Some use other iterations though. Most choices of the "symmetry" parameter should result in a Kaliset variant, but the bottom three are 2D Mandelboxen: straight, with inverse ballfold, and with rotation.

The seed here is 0.0219312560015 + 0.0726704820143i.

The center point is -1.1786049365 + 0.673186819i.

The side length is about 4.5.
