Spot Light Corner:
Joseph Trotsky's Oligochromatic Transformation to Colors

This time it is about colors and layers. So the "Doves Tree" artistic value has nothing to do with this Demo (Though not every day you happen to stumble upon a Tree full of Doves and "hand painted" in the Marc Chagall Style :-)

Look at the four colored fractals above: Doves tree, Lotus, Birds and Flowers and Tropical fruits. They are all fully colored and they are all various renders of the same par file, with the main difference between them all is the configuration of light streaming through the layers, along with a shift to the right or left.

Colors are light waves with a specific wave length. Light consist of quanta - small energy masses. Thus light propagates in a dual way: both as a linear wave ray and as a sinusoidal wave. This paradoxical behavior is responsible for the schizophrenic behavior of a straight light spear passing through a line of pinpoint holes, along with a circular wave motion, causing interference patterns.


Layer 1: base layer - basic motive	Layer 2: backbone	Layer 3: Expansion Bubbles


Layer 4: textural layer	Layer 5: second motive	Layer 6: Space filler

Now light quanta are passing through a few semi-transparent layers, (six in this par file). On each new layer the light passage is modulated by the pattern of the layer itself and some additional filters, answering to simple mathematical logic, as or, and, nor, nand, etc. One of the most obvious results is a change in the wave length in the range of the visible color spectrum, thus causing gray-scale and soft gray-oligochromatic layers to render vivid colors at the top layer.

As a by-product you can see the various fractal designs, that could be reached due to various light modulation - these and a few more:)
