Hi everyone!

i've been seeing alot of these design style around lately and could not work out how they could have done it.

I believe they must have created in photoshop but if not does anyone know which program is used to create this?

many thanks in advanced.

The program your looking for is called apophysis I believe.
I've used it a couple of times, but I never really understood it fully.
It's quite easy though, and what the program basicly does is generating random lights and lines.. So actually selling it online as photographic art is.. ********************** right up there.
It's a freeware program so google it and I'm sure you can download it somewhere

This is done using KPT 6.0 FraxFlame.

KPT= kai power tools.

Hey this apophysis is great man. But trust me it is made by KPT.

I'll give you a proof. I've KPT, but unable to find now. within 24 hours i'll show you the similar pic made by me.

but i'll try a hand on apophysis.

There are tons of fractal art programs. And it could have been made by any of them.

If you every find out how it actually works... I'd love to hear about it.
I never got around to being able to create the outcome really, except for the colors..
