Yes, semantics.
To me weird relates to the supernatural not just being very strange or 
bizarre.

You are right. I have used it in the (informal) sense, according to the 
Oxford Dictionary.

Well, I am a bit of a pedant. I would say that weird is more commonly 
used in that way, today.

I would not be able to tell; you are the native speaker :-)

Now, that is a bit of info I did not know and had been wondering about 
since I first heard the piece back in the seventies.

Anecdote: I first heard it at a painting exhibition. Music and paintings 
went so well together that I asked the artist (who was present) who the 
composer was. I immediately after bought a couple of records.

Yes, I recently started to buy the albums (one CD per month) played in 
"Schwingungen" ("oscillations"), the famous German electronic music 
radio show aired from 1984 to 1995, which I frequently taped back 
then... and there also was Schulze's double album "X", containing 
"musical biographies", amazingly (as Schulze declares himself a 
Wagnerian) there is no track dedicated to Richard Wagner... perhaps it 
would have turned "X" into a triple or even quadruple album!

To get the topic back to POV-Ray... there are in fact some electronic 
pieces in my collection which I really would like to translate into 
POV-Ray images or animations... for example "Delta One", "Legacy" and 
"Phobos and Deimos go to Mars" by Synergy, or "The Message" by Robert 
Schroeder... and there is even one composed by myself, which I would 
like to make a (POV-Ray or Blender) video for: "Transrapid", 
http://www.myownmusic.de/Yadgar/play/?songid=429382

See you in Khyberspace!

Wow, really nice pieces (the last one especially, is very detailed)!
The palette used is very fine: the images seem both ancient and futuristic.

I forgot to tell that the paintings at the exhibition were painted while 
listening to the music of Schulze, so yes, that would be a good idea.

I could not get the music playing though ...

I love these sequences. This is something I have never tried, to make the viewer
ask the question 'what exactly am I looking at?' The sense of disorientation is
captured beautifully, just like those first photographs from the various landers
(agree with Bald Eagle, also thinking of venus (that russian photo) and various
martain aerial views) where you end up turning your head this way and that to
see if it makes things any clearer.

Are these images composites or a single rendering?

Cheers,

Simon.
