Normally I don’t export each rendition of a design. But normally I don’t make a design that I like this much.

The inspiration for this design came from the Foreword cover page of ZMOT - Winning the Zero Moment of Truth, [a book about the modern age of digital marketing](https://www.thinkwithgoogle.com/future-of-marketing/emerging- technology/2011-winning-zmot-ebook/).


My favorite part of Higher Consciousness is the stacked effects that make it appear as though the highest "consciousness" is glowing. It casts its light using multiple gradients and a couple glow effects. This bit of nuance really ties the design together.

The intention behind this design was to create something to act as a cover page for a part of a project I’ve had on the back burner for nearly half a year. I think my ideas regarding this project are finally developed enough to start creating final products, and this design will likely be a part of the initial presentation.

I also think it would go well as an album cover for a song called "Higher Consciousness". Maybe it can be more than one thing.
