Description Apophysis 2.0 g || Full View Recommended For Detail

I lie, I wait
I stop, I hesitate
I am, I breathe
I meant, I think of me

Is it any wonder I can't sleep?
All I have is all you gave to me
Is it any wonder I found peace through you?
Turn away from light
It's not enough, just a touch
It's not enough

I taste, I love
I come, I bleed enough
I hate, I'm not
I was, I want too much

Is it any wonder I can't sleep?
All I have is all you gave to me
Is it any wonder I found peace through you?
Turn away from light

It's not enough, just a touch
It's not enough, just a touch
It's not enough, just a touch
It's not enough, just a touch
It's not enough, just a touch
It's not enough, just a touch

I think that Fractal art is absolutely amazing. I've been playing around with Apophysis (?) for ages, and I just can't get the hang of it. I'm not very good at Fractal art. Is there a tutorial any where, because to be able to make some thing as amazing as this piece would be fantastic.

there are quite a few, the best resource is the *Apophysis group. Flip through the journals and you should find a resource journal with everything you would need to get started.

Sorry if this seems off topic...I was once tested for a brain tumor (didn't have one). They hooked a lot of electrodes to my head and turned various parts of my bain on and off. This reminds me of some of the patterns I saw! Very cool!

MelonLogic In reply to ArtistInWaiting [2005-10-03 06:47:27 +0000 UTC]

I am glad they found nothing. Ever closes your eye then pushed on it with your hand. You can get some really cool neon things appearing.

slobo777 [2005-09-30 09:32:33 +0000 UTC]

I like the pseudo-symmetry. It looks intentional . . . I know of a couple techniques that would work to produce the effect:

a) Have a set of "almost symmetry" transforms ready to apply or script into the flame.

b) Apply a symmetry, then mutate slightly it without preserving symmetry.

Just wondered if you were doing either of those, or have another technique?

Clovdyx In reply to slobo777 [2005-10-01 04:20:41 +0000 UTC]

It was bilateral, and then Nik messed with the transformations and ended up offsetting it.

My favorite color. Well at least one of them. I could probably stare at this for hours and not sleep.

Your work is always something good to look at. I hope you know I enjoy being able to see it.
