fadeout: if you don't know it already, L-Trees have been around for quite some time.

yes i am, but it seems to be the least trollish trolling of all here on pouet :D

sofokles, despite i'm taking colorscheme into account too, the link you have posted explains nothing.

The effect possibly is not all original, but I can tell from the comments that it was original in this context. I once saw a showreel from some brasilian company (IIRC), where I got the idea for the growing flower. That flower/whatever on the reel was more pop-design like (as last koneisto).. I was thinking more about the japanese wood/paper cut illustrations as inspirator for this one. You could put one of those birds on that flower :) The effect was supposed to be part of my origami-safari themed VJ set, which in the end turned to be yet another robot-show :)

We're #2, so why try harder ;)

there were also gazillion mtv commercials with such L-tree like flowerpatterns.. even before Moppi's demo, so get a grip :P [eg. intro for The Trip]
Better than raped.
yeah. flower-patterns are really unique.

sure thing. i can scout for badgers!
Finland is famous for taking inspiration (I won't say ripping) from the major names in the art and design world, so no big surprise.
Exempli gratia, see:
