Concept

For one thing after other will grow clear,

Nor shall the blind night rob thee of the road,

To hinder thy gaze on Nature's Farthest-forth.

Thus things for things shall kindle torches new.

Inspired by the ancient philosophy poem On the Nature of Thing by Lucretius, this animation is a 3d fractal animation mainly exploring the energy, principle, and internal connection of the universe and things of this world including human beings.

We are all made up of small units. In the past, we thought the atom was the smallest unit. Now we know that there are smaller worlds existing in the atom. As with fractals, the world extends infinitely at the micro level and expands continuously at the macro level. The universe is constantly expanding and things are going back and forth. The exploration of truth will lead people to dispel the fear of the unknow. We have no hell beneath us, and above us, only the sky.
