Description Software used: Apophysis

I've been dreaming this strange dream since I was little, over and over again. It stopped when I was about 12 and I never dreamt it again. I was unable to describe it for next few years, there were no words for it. Now I can vaguely describe it as 2 images, repeating one after the other in endless cycle. First is celestial being, there is light everywhere and I can't see his/hers face. It's an image of victory, love and some other great feelings I still can't describe. Second is the lowest being on Earth, crawling in darkness. There is garbage everywhere and a dead animal somewhere, there is fear, death and sorrow. Can anybody explain the meaning of the dream?
This artwork is on the borderline of these 2 images. An angel being born in the middle of darkness, being born to fill it with light.

Technique. This is a 3d flower ( to Chiara) with pitch 90. I kept the "channel" thingie from Receiver but enriched the bloom and added some crackle. Maybe the crackle is a bit over the top but me luvs it!


Thank you for all favourites, comments, critiques and devwatches! It means a lot to me.

I think there is no version for mac, sorry Is it possible to run it through some win emulator? I know that it's possible on ubuntu, so it may be possible for mac as well.

Don't know much about dreams, but they are our repressed "wishes", the things we want to do, sometimes I dream I fly peacefully and got a big feel of joy. Maybe you wanted to get out of something, or you felt oppresed by other people, you're the light on the middle and all the dark arround you wont let you go, or just a beautiful moment, because it really looks pretty!Β Β Β Β 

I would like to know more about fractals and how they're made, but I will say you did a really awesome piece of art, all those shinny points are gorgeous and look fantastic, and the light on the center are wonderful!! Β Very nice work partner!!!

Well, that's one theory I wrote paper on different theories why people dream when I was studying at university, so I know a bit about this topic. It depends on which approach you choose. I'm definitely on board of psychoanalytical approach similar to the Freudian model you described, but I lean more towards Jung's theories.
Also, thank you for your compliments Very plainly speaking, fractal art is based on mathematical functions; when you make a fractal, you can start out with clear canvas and add layers with different functions that create and bend parts of your artwork. In that sense it's sort of like digital painting, only instead of brushes you have mathematical functions.

This is really amazing but you know what I thought when I saw it? It looks so much like Rose's cannon in Steven Universe. It's uncanny since you probably had no intention but it's just really crazy. You do really beautiful work so keep it up!!

You're welcome, it's not hard to imagine though. When someone looks at an image, it can look like different things to different people.

Sorry, that is not possible - check the artwork's license for more detailed info. However, you are welcome to use any of my stock images that can be found at following account: KeilaNeokow

RecentSnowfall In reply to lucid-light [2014-12-31 17:34:13 +0000 UTC]

Thank you. However, if I read the license correctly, it would be possible, as long as I give credit to you. You might want to have a look at that and probably change it?
I will respect your wish though and only use the ones from the other account.

Youtube videos can be monetized, so technically the usage of my artworks in your youtube videos is considered commercial. I think that the license is pretty clear on this matter, isn't it?

RecentSnowfall In reply to lucid-light [2015-01-01 14:12:23 +0000 UTC]

Hm. I guess you can read it both ways, either it is not allowed on youtube videos or only allowed on not-monetized videos, but okay.

I LOVE YOUR WORK. Also I think the meaning of your dream can mean like the downfall of Earth when everything was fine but now with Poltics, Peaple's garbage is everywhere and abuse to animals I think this is what your dream ment but not sure. I'm not a expert.

Perhaps the meaning of this has already been answered in your title. You stand between two extremes. Are you able to go in either direction? Which path would you choose?

You have to put them in Plugins folder within the floder where you keep the Apophysis .exe file
