Description

Sierpinski Towers Welcome to Sierpinski Towers where the aquarium is not in your house; your house is in the aquarium. Please drop by and visit me anytime. I am in the top half, tower 3,470, level 643, quadrant, 67, unit 42,650. Antarctic ice cores and ocean sediment cores allow us to determine global weather cycles dating back millions of years. The data clearly show that numerous global warming cycles have come and gone over the millennia. The majority of these occurred long before humans ever came on the scene. These cycles frequently coincide with species mass extinctions. We appear presently to be living at the onset of one of these cycles (although this is a subject of endless dispute). If past is prologue, then rising ocean levels are inevitable. Serious consideration is currently being given to possible engineering solutions to meet this eventuality. Sub oceanic Sierpinski structures are one of the options that have been suggested. Created in Ultra Fractal

Gorgeous! Beautiful colors! I love the fish! Was looking for you in your unit, but couldn't find you. Then it hit me: You are here, at Renderosity! ;-D Corrie

Past is definitely Prolog or as it's said today, What goes around comes around. The Ice Caps melt, the Oceans Rise the Currents reverse as the Magnetic Poles flip and Humanity goes the way of the Dinosaur. Peace

Me, I think we're heading into another Ice Age. Buy stocks in companies that make thermal clothing. I like very much how this fits into the background.

Fantastic image. Opens the imagination to so many possibilites that are coupled with your narrative. I personally think that people are kind of egotistical if they honestly think that what they are doing is controlling the global weather cycles. While i am a big proponent of not littering or polluting, it is just because i have no desire to live in a toxic waste dump, but i have no thoughts that by stopping every car in the world from operating you could do one iota towards reversing global warming, it is coming despite what we are doing not because of it.

A super idea, this Sierpinski Towers. Well, and you are on top? Always taking the best places, huh? ;-) The fishes and underwater world looks amazing. BTW, I was just confused, got into my head: that Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy, only had a suite, and no tower with his compo. 'Sierpinsky' ;-). Sorry, I'm not good enough awake.

You should be safe in unit 42,650 as it looks to be high above the rising waters. I like how this tower is rising up from the green surrounds. Excellent work.
