Vicarious Self-Sufficiency

Apophysis 2.08 3D

It's incredible how easy I find it to associate grand Julians with politics, but I'll treat this more later on with a journal entry of mine.
At any rate, this is the result of some nice experiments conducted with 3D tools and stuff. I like it mainly because the Julian isn't the dominating transform this time.
The weird term association, "vicarious self-sufficiency", is meant to express imaginary political freedom. People living in that town inside the bubble are actually self-sufficient, but they are forced to be so: they are trapped in a spherical universe they can't get out of. They are crystallized in time, paralyzed in an idilliac world, which is actually far from perfect - and, for that reason maybe, not really far from ours.
