INTRODUCTION



Contest finished, judging process has began, good luck to all


I decided to hold and sponsor my own apophysis fractal contest. I have been wanting to do this for a long time and now that christmas has passed and people are getting back into the swing of things, it is time to put our creative minds to the chopping block so to speak.

The contest as you already figured out will involve the fractal program Apophysis, so if you have a copy, you better keep on reading.

Ok, so your probably wondering what this is all about, and your in luck because i will tell you.

I picked a song, one which is imprinted in my head since a certain someone sent it too me. The song is about heartbreak, yes yes i know sad right? But the thing is we have all dealt with this at some point in our lives. Heartbreak creates passion and passion in return creates beautiful artwork.


SONG/LYRICS

The Cure: Trust || Lyrics
