Something I just recently dropped on MakersPlace. It's nothing too fancy, but something I made a while back while I was listening to this album by Thom Yorke. I felt like it went really well with this song.
The repetition in the song kind of evoked this idea about the fact that we're zooming along on this organic, naturally occuring spaceship through the cosmos without a ton of consideration for that greater reality that when contemplated renders all of our issues, hopes, achievements, concerns, worries, fears, ambitions, progress, sorrows, all tiny, all meaningless, but I suppose as meaningful as anything else at the same time.
The final version on MakersPlace is 4K and is pretty cool to fullscreen and meditate on. At least that's what I enjoyed. The loop is really short, but I'd find myself getting lost and being able to spend a surprising amount of time staring at it and thinking about what it represents.
When I created this I was creating a series of perfect loops of different subject matter for some work stuff. Comes in handy when taking the sort of stuff I like to make and thinking about it as "art" that someone would want to purchase and throw in their virtual gallery.
In other news OCA has been holding the #3 spot in trending communities for a while now, just under GEMS and OCD which are behemoths that will probably never be surpassed by another community, so I'm going to declare that #3 is actually #1 :D Either way, it's really awesome and couldn't do it without all of you OCArtist making awesome stuff everyday and all the curators out there completing the circle by rewarding you for it. In my mind this is the system working and I can't wait for more and more communities to be born and grow.
Also if you haven't seen it yet, I've created a post discussing how we deal with abuse in the art community here. Jump in and give your two cents.
POSH
Ahh the classic starfield. I'm sure this will make someone nostalgic for old screensavers XD
Given that I don't post in GEMS or OCD at all (and in fact only ever see posts from there because someone I'm following posted in there) OCA is totally #1 ;D
It looks lovely! Thom Yorke is great, been a fan for years. I look at OnChainArt as being a very cool community for artists, I always felt accepted and valued when I posted my art there. It means a lot for an artist when after hours and hours of work, they see appreciation.
I think that sometimes we fail to see the bigger picture in life and what really matters because it is so easy to get trapped in all of our little dramas, from petty things, to fears, to anxieties. We are so small in this big Universe and somehow plain worries, which are nothing than mere ghosts, manage to occupy a big part of our lives. I think it is always better to focus on the journey and enjoy it. It is not easy to be done, but it is worth it, especially when you know you are just a tiny ant carrying the weight of useless worries on your shoulders.
Thanks @creativemary, I'm glad to hear how the community makes you feel that way because that was the goal and the real opportunity I always saw with this technology. It's taken a while but things are coming together.
Yup, it is a comfy artistic coccoon and I like it😊
Wow, exelente trabajo, muy original, gracias por compartir.
My goodness, seeing this... I'm missing Star Wars already. I don't know why, but it's giving me fond memories of those opening sequences.
Ta ta, ta ta ta taa ta, ta ta ta taa ta, ta ta ta ta...
The gif integrated with this song is great! again, a great and elegant job. congratulations.
@midlet...How can I start putting up my artwork on makersplace. I did register, but I've not been allowed to post my creation. What should I do?
