And now for the really disgusting radiosity dia..hea pools with little
pieces of carrot and corn floating inside.

those to dots (.) are 'r' characters for the folks who can't decipher the
sentence above.

:)
I was really surprized, how simple function can represent itself.

Did you come across this while messing with the trefoil function? I think
that I saw something similar when doing the same.Is it just the highlight,
or is there a slight fold at the crease closest to the right side of the
image? Is this an isosurface?

This looks like a useful function. Perhaps it can be expanded to build
itself into a cube of similar shapes.

The other way around - trefoil function came later.

Yes, it looks like a slight fold.

>Is this an isosurface?
You named it already. This is 8-points spline along the cube vertices
build with spheres, as simple as that.

Sure, this is a space filling curve.

When you say built with spheres, do you mean a sphere_sweep, or hundreds of
individual spheres?
Would you mind posting the code? I would like to compare results and
render-time with my Cheap_Sweep macro.
