Description
Synaptic TerminalA collaboration between me and Kim laurila [link] . He created the organic (neuron) looking render and they reminded me immidiatlyto some illustrations in my biology book. The shapes really look like a structure of a vertebrate neuron.
For those who didnt pay attention in biology class here is some information wich should make the concept more clear.
The cell body of an structure of a vertebrate neuron has two types of processes, or extensions: Dendrites generally receive inputs and conduct signals toward the cell body, whereas axons conduct signals away from the cell body. At the end of the axon, terminal branches each have a synaptic terminal that makes connections with other neurons or target cells.
The working of the CNS (central nervous system) always facinated me. So i tried to make in this picture an visual intrepretation
of it. I hope you like it

never seen a synapse quite like this before, or a neuron at all for that matter
great job

This is amazing and well done, and I respect it alot for the intelligent connection to anatomy, but that makes it LESS abstract and more like an actual scene. i think you should check your definition of abstract.

Very complex. Though I thought the brain would be way more active and therefore brighter...(in its essence of course, because brains don't create light).
