Original title (which exceeded dA's character limit) should be "Thoughts About the Fall of Humanity". The downward motion extinguishes the golden flame, cooling down mankind's very living breath and marking its end. I must say making this got me thinking quite deeply about our common destiny.

I've been wondering what happened to the age of Aquarius. !

My comment was in reference to "About The Fall of Humanity" - Ah - Years ago, - there was a song - I believe it was called "The Age of Aquarius". When I looked at your age just now, I understood why you did not understand - Nor do I know if it was played in Italy. I don't know who wrote it, but I do believe it came from a play called "Hair" and The 5th Dimension sang it also. :D

Eh, sorry, I've tried my best to keep up with the musical culture of the past, but I have many decades to discover yet :D
What was this song about? If you could find a link for me to listen or read about it, I'd be very glad to know!

When the moon is in the Seventh House
And Jupiter aligns with Mars
Then peace will guide the planets
And love will steer the stars

This is the dawning of the Age of Aquarius
The Age of Aquarius
Aquarius! Aquarius!

Harmony and understanding
Sympathy and trust abounding
No more falsehoods or derisions
Golden living dreams of visions
Mystic crystal revelation
And the mind's true liberation
Aquarius! Aquarius!

---------------------------------

Not many words, now that I look at it - but back then it was the mood. It seems these days are darker now - there has been a shift. Let's hope for love and light! :D

Gosh, now I remember! When you posted these lyrics I instantly recalled it. I watched that musical when I was about 13 or 14 years old. That was my first contact with hippies. They're so colourful! :D I don't agree with all they sustain of course (I wouldn't spam drugs around so much for instance), but I like their attitude a lot, and I admire the pacific revolution they operated on their society.
We need new hippies here, definitely!

I'm struck by the sheer variety of gnarls here, from tiny wiggling sperm through golf club heads to those very assertive squares. Increasing the character limit for titles is outrageously overdue :D

Truth is, it's a single formula that creates many effects altogether. Nifty, isn't it? :D
Thank you very much for your comment!
(I wish dA would accept up to 30 characters instead of 25. That'd make things much easier for me!)

It does actually take 30 (including spaces)! Good job I never submitted my 'Morning shadows brush away the traces of last night's bloodshed' :rofl:

...I never noticed.
:lmao: True. The limit isn't 25, it's 30.
I guess Dalì wouldn't be able to submit this to dA with its original title: [link]

Mah, io non sono mooolto pessimista... diciamo che so che, se non ci muoviamo, sarà un po' difficile tirare avanti da bravi pastori bucolici. :lmao: Grazie!

...ecco, accadrebbe questo, se non azionassi i tergicristalli della mia Panda, quando piove...e finirei di conseguenza contro il primo palo!!!

Ma agisci direttamente sulle emozioni...non è da tutti! Complimenti!

E' difficile dare un concetto ai frattali, anche questo qui è nato nel processo. Non parto mai con un piano preciso, quindi è sempre una scoperta anche per me arrivare al lavoro finito :D

Che bellezza...mi capita qualcosa di simile quando disegno, ho in mente una cosa ben precisa...ma alla fine viene fuori qualcosa di totalmente diverso :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

La cosa importante è che mi diverto tantissimo quando disegno!

Certo!
Fare arte è bello per tante cose... tra cui il non sapere mai come andrà a finire un'opera! :D
