"...is distressingly addictive - I love it"

"good visualization tool"

"Persistence of Vision (POV) has been around for 
years and some amazing work has been done with it."

"Go to the POV-site (www.povray.org) for a free down-
load of and links to add-ons, artists' galleries and 
prize winning images."

"... still prefer POV-Ray"


:)


In the first half of the page there's a lathe image 
rendered with POV together with the script that 
generates the objects within the image.

Here they also talk about using a spreadsheet (on the 
enclosed CD) to calculate the co-ordinates for the 
lathe bowl shown in the image.

In the second half of the page they talk about ray-
tracing in general.
