icon design for Apollo

I am so pleased to be invited to design an icon for Apollo, a great application developed by ChristianSelig . As for the design idea, it comes from the similarity between lantern fish and Apollo robot in appearance. The luminous organ on the head of lantern fish is quite similar to the antenna of the robot. What is more, in China we often use different movement of fish to describe man’s different actions online. For instance, when people keep silent and merely browse information, it’s called “ diving”, and when people post something or chat with others, it’s called“bubbling”. So I think fish is an interesting image that can represent Apollo users.
