    Another cool one, love the airbrush quality of the background:
    Vast vision must improve our sight
    Perhaps at last we’ll see and end
    To our own endless blight
    And the beginning of the free
    Climb to tranquility
    Finding it’s real worth
    Conceiving the heavens
    Florishing on earth

  • retepk replied

    Thanks Syd. You got it. I should have attributed part of the title to the phrase in that Moody Blues song.
    Cheers.

    This is marvelous, so futuristic! I don’t think it’s just sci-fi. It looks to me like a VR game of the future, which is projected entirely inside the human’s brain. Something like in the “Brainstorm” movie or “Lawnmower Man.” Godspeed!
