I've toned down the colours a little, well... A lot really, but it still has complex patterns. May look like, there is nothing to see at first. Don't stare at it too long. http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/3739/3174/1600/strangletjpg.jpg Qubit I have a Picture, of my idea of what a blackhole is like, it’s computer art.

When I bought my Klein bottle in 2004 he even apologised for re-electing W. ;-) As for the art, I am less impressed: It looks a bit like a Mathematica rendering to me. For extra-dimensional art, check out Marcel Duchamp's <a href="http://www.beatmuseum.org/duchamp/nude2.html" rel="nofollow">Nude descending a staircase</a>. I second that, Amara!
