"Contemplation"

This piece was done primarily with Lightwave 5.0 through 
a series of renderings -- taking a rendered image and 
using it as a surface and then rerendering it over and 
over in different ways.  PhotoShop was also used for color 
correction, film grain and for minor esthetic touch-ups. 
The pen and paperclips are lightwave's -- the rest of the 
objects are original.

What does this piece mean to me? (the short version)
This piece, to me, represents the reality of a corporate 
desk job intertwined with childhood dreams and the 
contemplation of how to make those dreams reality. 
Why is one person's dream another's reality?
