Mandelbulb 3D parameter experiments: Set 3 of 3

Posted on by

This is the third set of variations on one Mandelbulb 3D image.

The full set of variations is displayed below. All of these use Amazing Box, [something], Folding Int Pow, and ABoxVaryScale4d formulas with identical parameters, except for the second position which is filled in by whichever formula I was testing at the moment. The results of these experiments are yours to use and improve on. I usually tried one or two variations for each formula. There are plenty of interesting bits to explore throughout these images, far too many for me to ever do justice to all the possibilities. They also may give you an idea of what the different transformations can do.

Mandelbulb 3D parameter experiments: Set 1 of 3

Last night, starting with this Mandelbulb 3D file, I spent a few hours experimenting with substituting different formulas in one position, holding all other parameters the same.

The results of these experiments are yours to use and expand on. There are one or two variations for each formula. There are plenty of interesting bits to explore in these images, far too many for me to ever do justice to all the possibilities. The images below also may give you an idea of what the different transformations can do. Mouse-over each image to see the filename.

All of these use Amazing Box, ___, Folding Int Pow, and ABoxVaryScale4d formulas with identical parameters, except for the blank which is filled in by whichever formula I was testing at the moment.
