I might even do it again the right way.
In this scene from the book David Bowman is taken through the stargate and passes over a planet with a seemingly white sky and checkered with shapes like a huge jigsaw. He realises that there are black points of light and what he was looking at was like a negative reality. This piece is based manily on that scene.
I even created a video of clips I made while creating it.

My name is Simon I'm an engineer, creator, free thinker and occasionally writer. For far too long I had ideas and nowhere to put them for the world to see, that's why Planet Simon was created.
I'm an experimenter, explorer and fascinated by the world around me and the people in it. My exploration goes further than the known universe and expands out to universe's I've created in my mind and put onto the creative canvas.
I'm not the person I used to be and over time I have evolved and the blog is evolving with me. Whatever this blog is in the future it's a place where all are welcome and ideas can roam free to find their magical place in the universe.
