As with much of his previous work, Wannerstedt applied 3D software — in this case Cinema 4D rendered with Vray — to create the photorealistic test space and its tasteful artworks and furnishings. The text effect was also done in that package, each letter render out and then set up in After Effects. This breakdown video reveals how the piece was built up.

He illustrates exponential growth and the dangers of self-replication is his book “ …
