6 ART: None.
The function of art is to hold the mirror up to nature, and there simply isn't a mirror big enough—see point one.

Holding a Mirror Up
I still don't really know what the point of art is, or if it has a point, or if in fact there's any such thing at all. I also suspect that the above image owes something to the work of Olafur Eliasson, in addition to the quoted authors.

I love prismatic color and you've hit that right on with this one! Nice work!
Can you get this from a phoenixDoubleNova I wonder? :D
Thanks, glad you like it! I should do a post explaining how to make these kinds of rainbows.
Wow, if you could do this with one of those infinitely-detailed images, that would be really beautiful. I've been exploring those formulas some more, and am increasingly impressed by all the cool stuff you've found in them. Mine always seem to just come out sandy. Guess I need more practice.
