This was a fun challenge to shoot for! This shot was taken from the back seat of a nearly empty bus, while I rotated the camera around the lens axis. In Photoshop, I cropped, changed the hue, bumped up saturation and contrast, tweaked levels and curves (all of these through adjustment layers), USM, resized, USM again, and added the border.
This is certainly one of my more abstract shots from the week. I was aiming for getting some good motion blur shots with the background still clear, but this image jumped out from the set.

I love purple with green and this is a very interesting abstract to boot! For me it falls somewhere between Pink Floyd's lightshows and Deep Space 9. Excellent title too.
You definitely got the blurry mess nailed. I find it strangely interesting too..I like the fact that I'm being sucked in to the center where the light worms are.
