Description
XIMERA ? is a CGG (computer generated graphic) illustration which consist of two symmetrical objects-animals. In this case the term chimera* was changed into ximera, that means human and computer joined creative artifact. It was made to illustrate Roman number ?10? and to describe anything composed of very disparate parts, or perceived as wildly imaginative or implausible.
* Chimera (/k??m??r?/ or /ka??m??r?) was, according to Greek mythology, a monstrous fire-breathing hybrid creature of Lycia in Asia Minor, composed of the parts of three animals ? a lion, a snake and a goat. Usually depicted as a lion, with the head of a goat arising from its back, and a tail that ended in a snake’s head.
