A futuristic digital masterpiece of 4 months hard work reflecting Bosch's "Garden of Earthly delights with many secrets and surprises.

 

I hear your voice on the wind of infinity I feel you, i see you. I am the voice that dreams. I am the voice. I am the voice that always be I am the voice of the future bring me your love and peace so that my wounds heal and your dreams set you free


This one had been requested by many people this includes family and friends and even people in the Art Studio(Sunderland) where I had just recently started oil painting (yes i have a lot to learn in oil painting, that in time I promise to do this picture sometime in my life as a massive wall sized oil painting) A canvas at that side would cost about £50. Especially my sister, when at the time I never knew had a sister when I completed this art piece asked to be re-upload it. She has a degree in art and psychology, and feels as well that the image itself has been misinterpreted incorrectly. There is another artist in the UK , as Sensual Artist which I am hoping to meet one day and perhaps do something together. He has been having problems with conservative groups, who had been banning his work from galleries in the UK. I do hope we meet one day. I had been working on my own in the Art Studio since I am a quite person most of the time, but when i talk and share I am not afraid to share my opinion since the people of this planet need to learn things. The people at the art centre said my work and this painting reminds them of the conceptual art of "AVATAR" and "Bosch".

Bosch is the one that had done the painting of "Garden of Earthly delights"
[link]

which depicted three spheres or parts of reality. That is a heaven, the so called paradise and then a hell.

There are several interpretations of the image, and some I do not agree with, but there are many individual ones and this is the general one. [link]

What do I see? I see a false heaven laid down by the Christian/cathololic religion, where everything is beautiful, but there is the lack of joy, happiness, laughter and playfulness. The centre picture, is the truth of it all how Earth should be but has been restricted and conformed. That is a paradise , a garden of Eden, where people are happy, playful, and enjoy living, and understand the universe and the nature of things. The key to paradism.

Then on the right is hell, where people are cut up and stuff, this is the fear people put on others where the left is the conformity they put on others that if you fail to do the stuff in the left, you have to face the right and go to hell. It also depicts like a doomsday blues in the right, where there is war and chaos and bloodshead. (take note that the ashamedness of nudity is depicted in left and right)

Then my picture depicts the centre piece, but a step further that is creating a paradise, and then exploring the universe.

Then my Essay/minithesis/booklet what ever you may wish to see it as, on Arts of Sensuality::>



Then some Important News links where you think about..

The brewing of Ignorance::'Oral sex' definition prompts dictionary ban in US schools

A parent's complaint over a 'sexually graphic' definition has seen dictionaries removed from southern Californian schools
(if they do not know, they would look for it, try to understand it and discover a perverse sexuality rather than a healthy one based on true love and sensuality)

The control of the system , the policy/non-conscious system has now become dependent on currency and censorship has become a market :-
"Software Makers See a Market in Censorship"


Then what if you you don't care and allow things get tighter and no improve to make peoples lives that of the heavens ?


Clarification of Old Description ::>

In the old description I used the concept of colonizing based on the star trek idea, and was brought up with the word since I was young and not aware with the negative connotations and the understanding of the word through history. So here you can learn from my error in words , and it actually should have been settling on a planet and blending into the ecosystem of that planet without harming it and as well terraforming it if the planet is very basic and contains no intelligent life or beings.

re-uploaded, removed by conservative, misunderstood individuals... it tore my heart.. if you dont know what that means, then God have mercy on you...If you dont like it might as well remove Bosch's Paradise (Garden of Earthly Delights)

It a

My art is the only thing that keeps me alive under my misfortunate fate...

Its not pornography.. if you say it is then you might as well ban Da Vinci's art or even

This is the artwork the big one which i have been trying to finish, some of you have seen the preview, I tried not to reveal to much.
This pic is especially made for:

snapz for deviantart subscription
Anglu
Liisa
Dana International and her fans (including my best friends) & Offer Nissim (his remix gave me the titel for the image) Since its the remix version that gives the sound to the image.

Laura and Jessica
And those who have me in the deviant watch, itching for this to be released.

I was inspired to give the name from the Offer Nissim Remix, which has Dana's voice in it.

This took me over two months to complete, it was an escape for me while waiting for laser. Most of the imagery seen here comes from dreams, daydreams while playing music.
As it took over two months, got delayed by eskom, and my PC crashing, and had to "cut down" and render things separately in 3 levels, background, middle ground and foreground. The file(s) took more than half of my hard drive, estimating 15 to 20 GBs or so with all the files. The errors i was getting was poser hanging... then some cases i got an error "out of memory" and then the most oddest case which happened 10 times is error - 50 , whatever that means i diont know. The planet and moons and space was done in Bryce. The interror of the ship with its plants and elves was done in poser 5 using the firefly renderer, i had to render it as well in poser 4 renderer for the dynanamic hair on some of the figures, and photoshoped over the poser 5 rendered stuff. The stages were then photoshoped together. The crystals were done in Assymetrix 3Dfx and then photoshoped and then textured to a simple plain prop as a texture., some of the plants were done this way as well.(most of them actualy to save on memory. In the poser 5 renderer all of the reflections were ray traced, including the wet-oily elf skins.


So what is the image about?
well its quite complex and alot is going on in here...

First of all the space environment, This is in the bridge of the Elvin mother ship, and they are heading for a very stormy planet, which they want to colonise, and they have named it Petra. Petra has 3 moons , just like the elvin home world, but the moons are different, but similar. But all three here are unhabited. The largest moon is composed of ice, and spins opposite to the planet's rotation. Thus keeping it cool, and has a breathable atmosphere, under the ice is ocean. The second moon is volcanic, has a thin sulphuric atmosphere, but atmosphere is thin due to its low gravity. Then an airless moon like Luna(Earth's moon), but 1/3 smaller.

As the mother ship descends slowly into the stormy, breathable Petra's atmosphere, they sing a song based on Dana's Petra. But some of the other elves are busy doing various things, like piloting the mother ship and such.

On the roof are crystals which generate light, the fairies like to fly and dance around the crystals. Thick leaved plants grow from the roof , these provide the air for the elves to breath. The crystal also receives music from any instrument or singing elf, intelligently and amplifies it, as well as change the colour of the lighting according to the feel of the music. It is also capable of projecting hologram images. The lighting near the floor is created from shards of these crystals which grow naturally. They grow around the Elvin magic feelings given off by elves having sensual feelings and feed of these feelings.

On the far left and right, there are strange tentacles. These are the tentacles of the flower elves. They look like squids, but they can detach from the tentacle body (if on planet and have space, (they can grow into giant flowers, where they remain inside deep in the flower with over a zillion tentacles), and regrow a new one. These elves terraform planets using telekinesis. They literally grow into a huge plant which creates many different creatures which terraform the planet, however, they have it easy, and just grow homes for the elves, as this world has basic life already. They are very loving creatures, even if they look scary, and love to spend hours holding coupled elves in the tentacle arms, assisting there sensual moments, and also "mothering" them. These live under the bridge deck,

and come out through the cavities of the biosphere. They also help with the ship's recycle system, acting like giant "earthworms"... There are only 2 on the ship.

Then coming closer are the ship navigation and weapons controls. (they hardly ever use the weapons since they are a very peaceful race.) Then in the middle is the bridge control, or captain's chair, the elves take turns being captain.

There are also younger elves here, the ones on the left are getting assistance in constructing a robotic fairy, which was already dismantled before the parts were taken out of the box and put together. On the other side, is a large droid, which two younglings and a Borg are working on, the Borg is assisting in the programming by plugging into the droid, and downloading code, where the younglings learn, to use the bits of code to construct the droid's AI. As you can see the younglings do not take part in sensual moments, since they to young to feel it or understand it, and during this stage, they learn fast, and actually allot of the ship's basic parts which the adults built on was invented by younglings. They learn fast, and when reaching maturity then develop magical powers, and become sensual beings and develop wisdom, love from there logic, knowledgeable youths, and there learning process, slows down, as well as there metabolism, and they stop aging and live almost forever.. Its part of the Elvin culture that they always close to each other, and love flows through them like magic, or it is magic? When the younglings grow up they see the love going on, but never understand it, but see it, younglings often tend to be selfish, stubborn, but when they mature the sensual feelings combined with deeper love as a foundation from what the seen and learned when were young, which becomes the "glue" of the Elvin society, which makes every member of society "family", and they bond to each other intensely and and intimately, with many elves as possible. This is why there is no war within there world as everyone they love so deeply, like everyone is there partner, and would break there hearts if they disappear, in fact all the elves that met with the disappeared elf would mourn. Well one could argue that because of there attractive anatomy, this helped enable this part of the culture to form, since elves never are disfigured and out of shape, if one had to look at this logically, and the love is held by chemistry, which I disagree, its deeper than that, its the inner peace, love that comes first, and then creates there emotions to do the chemistry part.

There instruments are often multi-player instruments, played by two or three elves. They always play music, and singing which keeps a loving relaxed atmosphere. They do have single player instruments. The one far away is a 3 player harp, which 3 elves play. It is more complex than playing a harp, since a lot of feeling is needed to play, and a specific feeling creates a psychic feeling which changes the sound effect of the string, that's struck.

Then the one closer by is a trumpet 2 player harp, which also the elves connect to it, and works with the same process of the 3 player one. But this one differs when they slump there bodies together in motion, it creates a drum sound, but more of a electron drum sound, like a rave/trance drum beat sound. The base is the trumpet attachments, which gives the base sound, with a particular string, and creates also one of the most strangest sounds... The sound they playing from it sounds like an orchestra with ( organ as main instrument, which is in a spacey sound) played through a wide echo chamber with heavy reverb with a buzzy base. Then one elf is playing a guitar. which is also wirelessly connected to the 2 player harp, the soft sounds is picked up by the crystal, and amplifies it, as the crystal is partly intelligent, after listening and amplifying the "song" it resample and remixes live...sometimes a song can be played for hours, but changing emotion, tempo and pitch.. the guitar is also capable of playing metal, since that it was originally designed for...

Here the elves that are involved in the music are singing (even the younglings are mumbling/humming along...



Vai Na La Petra (elvin for going to petra)




Dana International:
Going to Petra
Lyrics: Yoav Ginay
Music: 'Ofer Nisim
There, the moon sets in red
All the stones sweat blood
I’m going to Petra
There, the body seethes with madness
The hallucinations rise and fly
I’m going to Petra
Refrain:
I will cross a river
And I will return to the desert
Like a wild tiger
A night in the desert
Petra, night, Petra
There Asia borders on space
Her dress is slipping off up in the sky
I’m going to Petra
There, your lips kiss tranquillity
Drums of passion are booming
I’m going to Petra
