euh, I started inverting my image.. I applied some very transparent paths to the scene. I brushed some pieces (blending options: overlay) to let them lite up a bit more...
I played around with curves, brightness and contrast, hue and saturation...
After all, I inverted it all back, because I wanted it to look dark. I added my impulsive logo + a 'metrostation' brush. (http://www.peamarte.it/02/download.html)
The synapsis text was just a text, rotatated and added perspective...
I duplicated the layer... The above, I blurred... I gave both a mask, to make it look focused on the middle... that's quite it..

Cool
I never really understood that program...
Why was my post linked?
Don't think there's anyway to help you with the brush.. Making it smaller perhaps.. but you knew that  |

what's that say about Macs?
PCs all the way baby!
I think the effect is pretty cool. I might look into using that program a little bit. Till now when I needed an abstract image pattern I would open up my music player and take some screen shots of the visual effects plugin. |

That's another way ...
I don't know why you all complain about the complexity of apophisys?...
You don't have to understand the math's behind it to create a beautiful pattern ^^... the version I'm using consists of a mutation menu: you can pick the pattern you like most, out of a list of 8 other patters that all has a slightly distorted factor, related to the one in the middle...
With this method you could come to the prefered pattern ^^
