Re: mandelbrots generated with skewed complex-number rules

How/where did you compute 'white hot heat' ?
(what's the center of the area ?)

was quite amazed at what I got. From far off, the image looks much more
chaotic than regular mandelbrots, and changes to the seed seem to change
the image more. But it produced many different kinds of images, all
self-symmetrical and all very beautiful. I've posted the code and a
link to some images generated with this method. I've not seen any like
this before, but if anybody has seen this before, I'd like to know about
it.

Other than the changes you see below, the rest of the code is exactly
like a regular mandelbrot test.

zr = z.real;
zi = z.imag;
z.real = zr * zr - zr * zi + c.real;
z.imag = zi * zi + zr * zi + c.imag;
.
