Zero Energy Abstract Art

Zero Energy Abstract Art
After adding three old images to the Artsnova Space Gallery last Friday, I thought that I had better add something new to another of the galleries.
Zero Energy is a play on the physics term of zero-point energy, which is the lowest possible energy state of a quantum mechanical system. For more on the physics behind the term see Calphysics Institute: Introduction to Zero-Point Energy.
All “drawn” shapes in the image are perfect circles. However you will notice that the circles are organized into rectangular blocks - think of round pegs in square holes.
For more, see the Zero Energy gallery page. The page also contains a link to a full size version of a portion of the image as the details can not be discerned in the scaled down version.
Ad Astra, Jim

It really is the coolest to watch the really detailed objects. Nive blog!

Hi,
Sorry about the delay in responding but June has been one busy month for me. Yes the smallest circles are quite small so there is more than an order of magnitude difference in scale between the smallest and largest circles. Kind of like the universe itself - we keep drilling down to smaller and smaller levels of reality.
