In this work I've combined custom, GAN-generated textures with 3D-postprocessing in Blender using the Eevee render engine.

Since YouTube's compression algorithm is pretty harsh for the visual quality, please consider watching the HD version on my Vimeo channel: https://vimeo.com/neuralsynesthesia

(If anyone knows how to get rid of the black reflections in the centre of the spehere using Eevee, plz pm me, I'm still learning Blender as I go :p)

Epilogue:

“There is no English word for a type of feeling which the Japanese call yūgen, and we can only understand by opening our minds to situations in which Japanese people use the word […] ‘To watch the sun sink behind a flower-clad hill, to wander on and on in a huge forest without thought of return, to stand upon the shore and gaze after a boat that disappears behind distant islands, to contemplate the flight of wild geese seen and lost among the clouds.’ (Seami) All these are yugen, but what have they in common? ...

I feel that I know exactly what yūgen is, despite there being no English translation. Yūgen is an expansive feeling, a mystical awareness, an almost soaring reverence for existence that is summoned forth by a poignant confrontation with the ineffable details of reality. "
