【No. 0008】New Year's Greeting Card using Mandelbrot Set

Dec 26, 2014 23:14
Today, I wrote new year's greeting cards.

In Japan, there are twelve types of zodiac(animal symbol) for each year, and we often draw the animal in the new year's card.

The zodiac of next year is sheep, but I thought it's boring to draw sheep merely.

So, I searched sheep in the mandelbrot set which is represented as follows:

z_n=(z_n)^2+C,

where C is a complex number, and interestingly, this complex sequence represents fractal(fractal means the shape has many various self-similar patterns).

And after a while, I found sheep-likes shape in the square of the diameter 4.57321575822222e-8 which was centered at the coordinate (-1.74972831529409, -3.35584316649456e-10) .

I decided to use the sheep hidden in the mandelbrot set, and then, I drew sheep's eyes additionally and printed it.

Beautiful sheep shaped mathematical was completed!
今日は、年賀状を書きました。

日本では、12種類の干支が各年に存在し、我々はよくその年の干支を年賀状に描きます。

来年の干支は羊ですが、私は単に羊を描くだけではつまらないと思いました。

そこで、次の式で表されるマンデルブロ集合の中から、羊を探しました。

z_n=(z_n)^2+C,

ここでCは複素数を表し、そして面白いことに、この複素数列はフラクタルを表します(フラクタルとは、様々な自己相似のパターンを持つ図形を意味します)。

そして暫くして、私は座標 (-1.74972831529409, -3.35584316649456e-10) を中心とした直径 4.57321575822222e-8 の正方形領域内に、羊のような形を見つけました。

私はマンデルブロ集合の中に隠れていたこの羊を利用することを決め、そして羊に目を追加で描き、プリントしました。

数学的形状をした美しい羊の完成です!

    I think it would be better to split this into two sentences.
    You could also say, "I added (on) sheep's eyes."

This sounds like a really creative way to decorate New Year's cards! (:

Wow this is super nerdy (in a good way). And awesome^^

Thank you very much for your correction!!!

By the way, if I use "made", should I write like "made from(or of?) Mandelbrot Set" ?
Timmy
You are welcome!

>By the way, if I use "made", should I write like "made from(or of?) Mandelbrot Set"

Sorry I should have commented my correction. Your original sentence is fine, but you can also write it like this: New Year's Greeting Card made using Mandelbrot Set.

I misunderstood your correction due to the lack of my study! I'm so sorry. (><)
And thank you for your kind explanation!!!(*´▽`*)

Oh no you shouldn't have to be sorry. It is my fault that I didn't explain my correction.

It's nothing^^

  • This sentence is perfect! No correction needed!

    We should capitalize the names of holidays, such as "Christmas", "Hanukkah", and "New Years".

  • In Japan, there are twelve types of zodiacs (animal symbols), one for each year, and we often draw the animal in the New Years card.

    "Zodiac" is a countable noun, and so is "symbol".

    I think you meant to write "one for each year" because otherwise, the sentence is misleading, saying that there are twelve for every year. :)

  • The zodiac of next year is sheep, but I thought it's boring to draw sheep merely.

    This is more natural. :)

    We write "sheep-like shapes" with the plural on the shapes because "sheep-like" is just an adjective. "Shape" is the actual noun that we can make plural, like in "rectangular shapes" and "green shapes". :)

woops! I just realized that you only found one and not multiple of them, so it would just be "I found a sheep-like shape". :))
Toru
Thank you so much for your correction and your handwriting picture!!
You're very good at drawing.(^-^) (but why a monkey..?)

>> I just realized that you only found one and not multiple of them,
I found a number of similar shapes at once (because it's a fractal), so maybe I think your first correction "shape-like shapes" is right! :D

And I uploaded these images. (´▽`)

へへへ Ever since I saw this derpy running monkey on the back of my friend's shirt in high school, I've started drawing it everywhere, wearing different things. :))

けけけ I'm gonna look around your website now http://kano.arkoak.com/ : ))
Toru
Hahaha, no wonder you look really accustomed to draw it! (^-^)

Oh! Now you know my weird blog site!
It's a little embarrassing! (´ω`*)
