Pretty sick! Really a "brain can't parse this" pic. Would love to know the magic behind the shot :)

It's the Shanghai Astronomy Museum

See https://feddit.org/post/22905017/10444917 for a picture of the room

Stargate, obviously.

This is the Oculus at the Singapore astronomy museum. According to Google image search.

What are we looking at here? Looks like a bathroom mirror / portal that leads to a running track.

Anybody else get the sudden urge to play GoldenEye on N64?

The Grid...

A digital frontier:

I tried to picture clusters of information as they moved through the computer...

What did they look like? Ships? Motorcycles?

Were the circuits like freeways?

I kept dreaming of a world I thought I'd never see...

And then one day ... I got in ...

Looks really nice.

Very cool. Is this a render? A photograph of something?

[–] kunegis@feddit.org 5 points 3 months ago (1 children)

It's a real photograph, made in the Shanghai Astronomy Museum.

The picture in the post is the only one I made, but I found this one online that shows the whole room:
