pseudo-de colouring with 4.5x4.5 supersampling

Nice image and very interesting method!
I will indeed explore your method later!

an exponential map zooming through this location:

rendered with expmap from kf-extras

422 kfb files (640x360) gave 565x26163 image, then chopped up with pamdice and reassembled with pnmcat - then downscaled 4x in GIMP for anti-aliasing.

and a video (5mins, 40MB - the cross hair image is at around 4mins in):

The soundtrack was made by flipping the exponential map image vertically, then loading as raw mono unsigned 8bit PCM in Audacity, setting samplerate to 48000Hz for a length around 5mins, applying DC Offset Removal filter, renormalizing volume, exporting to wav, encoding to vorbis and muxing it in when encoding the video.

At least this begins to look like musical notation ... lol.

The lack of color is actually a nice feature, since it does not distract and confuse as much as the (ment to be so) psychedelic fractal images. This gives a nice focus on the "sameness" of the fractal, and that over the whole zoom path down to a specific location.

I wanted to try, but the link "C99 source code tarball"  to http://mathr.co.uk/blog/2014-12-13_faking_distance_estimate_colouring.tar.gz is broken ...  :hmh:

ah, sorry - I'll fix it - but that code is already obsolete, see the git instructions at http://mathr.co.uk/blog/2014-12-17_exponential_mapping_with_kalles_fraktaler.html
