Once again, I'm not sure if this classifies as an abstract. I just think it
looks nice, and as such is my new background. It's also quite simple, like
most of my stuff. Enjoy.

How was this done? I like it, it would make an interesting galaxy.

It's just a bozo passed through a macro called Twirl. I can't find who made
it. The color map for the external (blue) area is
[.150 rgb 0]
[.250 blue 1*1.25]
[.375 rgb <1,2,4>*1.25]
[.500 blue 1*1.25]
[.600 rgb 0]
The emission is set at rgb 1/3. Mind you, if you're looking to get nice
results, you'll have to use at least samples 15,15 and intervals 15 (at
least I did, perhaps there is a better, lower setting).
Tell you what, if enough people show interest, I'll post the complete
source, OK?

4 : having only intrinsic form with little or no attempt at pictorial
representation or narrative content <abstract painting>
i'd say it qualifies

It's a very cool image. Cross between laser-light show and glowing vapors in space.
I made that second thing up :-)

With some different colours it would make a nice
black hole.

Then it wouldn't be black any more, right?

You'd be surprised to know that the Sun is an almost perfectly black
body. A black hole does emit electromagnetic waves, more precisely the
various odd things it does to its surroundings do. It's not impossible
for a black hole to be visible, albeit indirectly.
Not that I've seen one with my own eyes, mind you.

I recently read that the Hubble telescope has finaly comfirmed that
black holes actually do exist. There is one in the core of the milky
way galaxy and it now believed that there is a black hole at the
core of every galaxy. This last part has not been confirmed.

Matter falling into a black hole emits radiation that is visible before
it passes the event horizon. This radiation is caused by friction
heating and also by the near light-speed velocities(a kind of
synchrotron radiation?).

Additionally, because of general relativity, nothing ever passes the event
horizon of the black hole. A black hole consists of all the matter that is
currently falling into it.

The hole will be black. The disc of
hot gases spiralling into the black hole however would be very bright
indeed. Matter falling into the hole is accelerated by the gravity of the
hole and that combined with the friction creates a very bright very hot
spiral of matter on its way to oblivion.

I got a decent result (the monitor I've got here is *very*
bad, so I can't be sure it's really good, but it didn't look
worse than yours) with the following settings:
samples 20,20 intervals 1 jitter 0.01 aa_level 7
aa_threshold 0.1
Remember that:
* "samples s,s intervals i" is nearly equivalent to "samples
i*s, i*s intervals 1" except that it should render slightly
faster and give slightly better results
* the max number of samples in method 3 can be approximed
with samples^aa_level therefore increasing aa_level can do
wonders for the quality without increasing render time too
much (although in some cases it won't do any good)
* a slight jitter can sometimes help a lot
Jerome
PS: when I seemed to imply that the pic looks bad, this is
only due to the screen I've got here, I've seen pics that
looked much worse here and were pretty good when viewed on a
decent monitor...
