Re: this image
Fucking brilliant.
I was relatively happy with that one. It's awfully hard to represent the Singularity visually.
Uncropped, in color, for your pleasure.
Where is it from?
From the "About" page:
Yeah, that's a great image. In my opinion, it would be slightly improved if some of the original fog was drifting in front of/around the towers of the city, as this would both be a nice callback to the original art and help show that the future is still somewhat unclear, but the effort involved might be incommensurate with the results.
I would love to have a digital artist draw something very much like my mashup (but incorporating your suggestion) as an original composition, so I could use it.
I note that since this was written you've had a new, closely related image redrawn by Eran Cantrell. I'd actually thought it was Aaron Diaz from the way the guy looks...
Looking at the new image now that I've just finished reading the E-book, I could have sworn it was Benedict Cumberbatch playing Sherlock Holmes.
Yeah, except the minor quibble I have over what this image actually represents if you have some background knowledge (the space city is from a computer game). But sure, the look of it is absolutely brilliant.
It's also another far-mode picture.
