  The plasma in fractint (and my macro) is calculated iteratively using
random steps. There's no (non-recursive) formula f(x,y) which returns the
height at the point (x,y) according to the plasma.

  (Well, strictly speaking there _might_ be such formula, but I have no idea
how does it look and I have the feeling that it would be quite complicated).

  If the iterative version is enough, one algorithm can be found in my
macro (which I think Ken sent to you).
