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!
