Julia-like Phoenix Fractal

 

Instructions: To zoom in on an area, highlight it with mouse by dragging out a rectangle. To zoom out press reset button. You can change intensity of colours by pressing '+'/'-' buttons.
Description:
Phoenix fractal is a connected set of points in the complex plane generated by transformation:
Z_n+1 = Z²_n + Re(C) + Im(C)*Z_n-1
where:
C = Re(C)+i*Im(C), Re(C) and Im(C) are constants.
Initial value of Re(Z) and Im(Z) are x and y coordinates.
Phoenix curve was discovered by Shigehiro Ushiki IEEEE Transactions on Circuits and Systems vol 35 No. 7 July 1988 pp788.
Originally used value of C was: Re(C) = 0.56667, and Im(C) = -0.5.
There is no relation between Julia-like and Mandelbrot like Phoenix sets
Phoenix images do not have X and Y axis swappers as it is normal for this type.
