IMAGE DESCRIPTION: 

I thought that a lot of people would draw futuristic images, so I decided to try
to make
it clear that we just don't know what future will bring.


DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED: 

The sphere is filled with scattering media, and I was experimenting with
techniques to make it
look unclear. I got the best result with wood density (any tips on this are very
welcome, it
took me over 2 hours!). The standard for the sphere is a torus, it's legs are
sphere_sweeps.
The cards are just boxes, and the crystal is made of triangles. I made the chain
with half-
toruses and cylinders, and rotated and translated them to fit them well.
