Tecstasy 4K [4.9.2021]

AKA: Digital Drugs. A cheaper, not so permanent alternative to the Neuralink.

3840x2160 PNG created with C4D and Octane.

This image was originally rendered in 1920 x 1080 on [10.14.2017]. I recently found the project file and decided to re-render it at a higher resolution only to find that it did not look like the original. What happened to the file over the 4 years it laid dormant? Did the parameters I initially set when I originally created it decay with time due to entropy?
