The Linden of watermelon hues has many fans, but this is probably the first time someone's named an interstellar cloud after him. Scored to great ambient music also made by the Torlean's creator, this video is "really just a little conceptual test pulling together a few
different things I've been doing recently," Aimee Trescothick tells me. It fuses WindLight glow with texture animations, similar to fog effects she uses outside her gallery.
An encouraging visit to Torley Linden's office inspired her bring these elements into this spinning wonder. (Higher res version here.)
"The Nebula is actually only about five metres across," says Aimee, "but it's flown through at a low speed, making it seem larger." She's created a custom WindLight sky for the starfield and dust clouds. "The camera is upside down most of the time to make it look like there's nothing but stars below."
