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.
