Midnight SandwichToday my trusty watch decided it was dead
so I ate raw midnight between two loaves of bread.

Gazing at the clock I saw "nothing" get displayed
Pouring down the windows, one could feel the glass wane:
They let the clouds get through, the rain remained outside.
Purple sky was growing out of my weary mind.
Remind! Retrieve the time, red pill and so it starts:
There's no such thing as late when future's all you got.

The artistOnce there was born a human, with the purpose of knowing nothing at all.

As he walked the streets, he would question, and whoever turned by chance would find the eyes, from them a gaze so grey and dull that blinded like the sun. Each step he took was to his ears like a nuke, yet the noise went unnoticed amidst the music of tires and concrete. When he spoke, the words would be drawn in a language to men and women unknown, but well-understood by the wind and trees and cosmic spheres.

He lived no more than a second, left to dissolve in the stars' white river, and was forgotten by every person in which he lived to leave an indelible mark. On th

Clockwork Sunby ~Mokunen

Digital Art / Fractal Art / Fractal Animations

A simple fractal animation I did several years ago. Also, this is where my avatar came from.

Like clockwork, the earth spins, over itself, around the sun.
Like clockwork, the sun burns and radiates non-stop.
Like clockwork, the heart thumps the chest.
No clock ticks unpunished.

87 frames, made with Apophysis, resized and animated in GIMP.

11/11/05 Edit: Merged first and last frames for better loop (they're 84 frames now), uploaded larger file.

very very cool. i find fractals in general and Apophysis specifically to be very difficult. how long did it take you to make this? each render must have taken many hours.

~Mokunen May 13, 2012

Oh, this was made so many years ago that I don't remember clearly how much it took to render. I do remember leaving the PC on the whole night working on it, then coming back in the morning to find out it still had a lot of work to do, but back then my computer wasn't exactly the fastest around. I agree with you, it can be hard to consistently get good results from Apophysis, and this animation was pretty much a lucky accident; the original Apo file was lost to a hard drive crash, but I remember it involving only two triangles and mostly the "disk" variation, then maybe spherical or swirl, I can't remember clearly now. The difficulty in getting good results has long since driven me away from fractal art.

Thanks a lot for the comment!

i'm sorry to hear you stopped making fractals. last time i dabbled with fractals was back in september but i intend to get back to it.
