For my current fractal art project, my theme was "evil" and the undoing of all things it encompasses. The concept of evil is one that portrays a person as one without morals and delves into wicked actions. In fiction related to the supernatural, the portrayal may extend to object identified as having unnatural spiritual affects.
When individuals are involved, the ability of those persons to cause or bring intense suffering to others. This can be done for personal gain or a warped sense of satisfaction at seeing other individuals in pain, immense suffering, or in misery.
Motives rarely make sense to society viewing the evil deeds. However, to the person who is perpetrating the deeds, in his or her mind, it makes perfect sense. In other words, their morality and sense of goodness has been warped in some fashion.
I wanted to share with you a fractal art project with a view into the face of evil in its joy.
Four brothers left Earth under the cover of adventure. Others celebrated as they were banished. Damian Razor, Savant Razor, Dextorin Razor, and Veynez Razor basked for decades in their evil deeds.
Captured and sentenced to a life imprisonment, they vowed that no bars could contain them.
in search of more fertile prospects. Having been cast out and not allowed to return, they wanted the galaxy in search of other they could dominate.
Each ruled the corners of the galaxy. Each declared dominance in his realm. Without mercy, they reveled in and laughed with merriment as they went forth to find new galaxies to conquer.
Perhaps the most devious of the four, Damien could control men's minds. It was rumored that his glaring eyes could burn a hole through one's soul.
It was rumored he settled and took control over the north section of the galaxy. This part was the most feared as settlements could not be established due to warring factions. Damien relished in the challenge. Who he could not subdue into submission, he'd eliminate.
He disguises well, does Savant Razor. His approach is subtle. His intent is deadly. He surrounds himself with elaborate imagery so as to distract. My understanding is that he has more followers than all his brothers.
His mask hides his disfigurement. His soft voice lures one in. His words convert even the hardened true believer of good and decency. He is pure evil personified.
Dextorin Razor does not pretend. He has no need to. His halo shines brightly in the darkness of night. No matter his actions, people applaud him. He lives out people's dreams and fantasies. He has no shame. He has no purpose. He delights in seeing others fooled by his deceit. His exploits were many.
A small group attempted to force him from the planet. Others championed his evil cause.
Vaynez Razor. He is simple in his approach. I am what I am. Take me or leave me. Its your choice. But be mindful is you choose not to support me. For within I have the power of fire. I have the power of death. And I have the power of immense suffering.
Banish me if you will. I'll return. Retribution will be heaped upon your heads and that of your descendants.
In approaching my fractal art project, I wanted to highlight four pure fractals that I recently created in Apophysis 2.09 and the upgraded version, Apophysis 7X. This program is a fractal rendering software. I designed them specifically for this project as accessories for the generative art designs.
Below are my steps for my fractal creations:
For Damien Razor:
For Savant Razor:
For Dextorin Razor:
For Vaynex Razor:
For my fractal art project, I included a stable diffusion project. These images I intended to incorporate into the fractals to create evil entities. The project I utilized was StarryAI. I feel my description assisted the program in producing my expected output of deviant faces that emitted different personalities.
Text input:
"Lord Satan in outer space."
Modifications: hyperrealism, cosmic, galactic, photorealistic, glowing neon, hyper detailed, cinema 4d, johan grenier
Method: Argo
Runtime: 50
Results: (4 Images)
To complete my project, I used Canva to blend my fractals and stable diffusion images. I first uploaded all images.
The diffusion images would be the backgrounds. All was needed was to fill in the outline of the image to fullness.
My fractals would showcase the foreground.
Good luck everyone with whatever your endeavors.
