"The idea behind this image was to use elements from my own research (and from science in general) in a purely visual-aesthetic context, stripped of their scientific meaning. PET scans, brain waves, electromagnetic spectra, diagrams and molecules all intermingle to created the impression of a psychedelic trip. Scientific data representation can be enormously visually appealing. In my graphic, I wanted to play with this artistic aspect of science, and, for once, ignore the abstract meaning behind." - Alex Gamma
