Who did the artwork on this site? The short answer is, "I did!" However, the short answer isn't entirely truthful. If you really want to know the truth, G-d made the artwork, with only a little help from me.

All of the images on this site were created using two open access programs. The first, Apophysis, is a fractal generator thingy with both random and nonrandom capabilities. I used the random function for the most part, although I did modify colors in some cases.

Once I had a basic fractal image I liked, I used GIMP - an open access equivalent to Photoshop - to enhance and manipulate the images and create backgrounds.

I have viewed thousands of random images on Apophysis, and some of them are breathtaking. Frankly, I find this disturbing. After all, one argument for the existence of G-d is that the beauty in our world couldn't possibly be random. It's too complex to have just happened on its own. Yet here is beauty in random mathematics. What does it mean? That G-d is random? That G-d is mathematics? That there is no G-d?

Maybe G-d is random and not random. If that's the case - and even if it's not - it's just one more piece of the Great Mystery.
