Thank you Sydney for the winning name! I can't declare winner on Facebook because their rules distance themselves from contest liability.
I didn't know the definition of oracle included the knowledge & wisdom passed from an oracle, but now I realize the name fits perfectly.

Fractal Flame image. This is how I imagine an Atom would photograph, if we could get a live action shot. We never can though, as light can't bounce off all those parts fast enough to be captured like this.

Thanks to Royce for helping name the image, his suggestion had the most thumbs up. (1)
Now post links about VisualParadox.com all over the internet, or I shall blot out the sun.

The original concept was more powdery splashes of color. But in compromising with the contrast I wanted, it ended up looking like damage from an intergalactic paintball war.

Mathematically generated Fractal flame image. A dual screen version of this will soon be available, that has the other wing on the second monitor.

Using the gears I designed for the Clockwork theme of my website, I put together a clockwork desktop background.

I had some interest in licensing an image like this, but can't get the person's email off a dead computer until I get a replacement part. Hopefully they see this.
