HAL 9000 Animated Fractal

"I am putting myself to the fullest possible use, which is all I think that any conscious entity can ever hope to do."
~HAL 9000, 2001: A Space Odyssey

You can blame Tangent101 for this. After discoverying his "Tammy Script for Apophysis", and how quickly it animates fractal flames, I immediately began experimenting with it. This version of HAL 9000 is the very first fully rendered animation that I've made with his script. I am not habituated to uploading GIFs on deviantART, so I expect I'll make some errors... a glitch here 'n there.

You can also find this animation here on: [Google+] [Tumblr]

I have made well over ten different renders of HAL9K, the most recent being "The Ascendant" [Here on deviantART]. I find artificial intelligence to be a very provoking concept and, in my analysis, I also find it a highly likely outcome for the next dominant form of life on this planet.

I really was about to head out for breakfast tacos when I was posting the tile pack earlier, and that is exactly what is going to happen here in a few minutes. Give me tacos or give me death!

Thanks for the lens flare goes to Andrei Oprinca [Here on deviantART].

For Apophysis7X users, here is the raw fractal flame: sta.sh/0obit64l321
