Cultures

A world of many cultures appearing from afar more like micro-organic cultures. A semi-transparent structure derived from plant cell casings is filled with the rhythm and natural bustle of everyday life and cultural traditions. The natural sky in the upper part connects to the neutral middle area of the whole all the way to the root part of the controlling system.

Anomaly

An anomaly of unknown origin disrupts a relatively stable structure, just as it unexpectedly happens in all systems. The origin or diagnosis of this problem becomes, even in a relatively artificially created world, all the more complicated and can be guessed. An example can also be the financial crisis which, in this phase of evolution, appears more like a natural catastrophe, whose inevitability we can again only suspect, but it is not in our power to effectively intervene against the inaccessible whole from which it comes.
