It is my own face, filtered to gray scale and the contrast heightened. It's a socio-political statement on the mockery of humanity the internet transforms people into.


Not really, but it sounded profound. :P

@MsDream Oh, I love a good sub-context, and meanings within meanings. You should ask me why I picked this NAME... ;)

@GwydionFrost WHY? 🤔

Gwydion

The meaning is difficult to explain. The word "gwyddion" means "trees" or "forest" {a more common word is goddeu, which is related}, but can also mean "weaver" and "loom." A related word, "gwyddonydd," means "scientist." Now, taking into consideration that the word Druid--magician, priest, and judge of Celtic society--is thought to derive from "drus" meaning oak, it is likely that the word for scientist is derived from forest--the man of learning gained his learning from nature. Hense, the name implies one who is learned, steeped in knowledge both esoteric and scientific, and weaves his way in spells and science, rather like an alchemist.

...and anyone who knows me will tell you-- this is ACCURATE.
