This is a thirty-nine-frame animation of the Lorenz Attractor
rotating through a 76-degree arc. Use it as you wish but please
give credit to the author.
The images were generated by a modification of the Lorenz module
in CHAOS.ARC available in DL16. They were captured by a modification
of SaveILBM on the Extras1.2 disk. The animation was made using
Eric Graham's MOVIE package. And of course the greatest credit should
go to Professor Lorenz of MIT who, twenty-five years ago, saw something
important in equations others considered too `chaotic' to be of interest.
At least 1 Meg of RAM is necessary to run this animation. You must
have the MOVIE program in the same directory with LORMOVIE. At the
CLI prompt type MOVIE LORMOVIE, sit back for a bit of disk-grinding,
then enjoy the show.
WARNING: WHEN YOU EXIT THE MOVIE THE SYSTEM WILL CRASH!! (at least,
mine does). The Guru will arrive and you will have to reboot. Just
make sure nothing valuable is in RAM; everything on disk is safe.
I welcome comments, criticism, discussion, etc. preferably via
EMail. I also follow the Science/Math forum on CIS (GO SCIENCE).
Here's hoping you like the movie.
