Hey, good one! Now you need one of those big wall fans in the back, sunlight
streaming in through a slatted blind, and a big stogie resting in an ashtray.

bokeh only shows up in heavily blurred backgrounds:

guess not to most povray users tastes.
BTW, bokeh is like some stupid craze. Can't help but feel hopeless by the
number of comments just talking about it rather than composition, lighting
etc...

I was also thinking ... an "on air" sign or station call letters. A
stack of records and a cup of coffee comes to mind as well ... thanks!

perhaps ... but it does have it's place. I prefer a slight focal blur to
separate main object from the less important background object(s)

But that's the bokeh, that slight focal blur isn't what in photography is
intended for bokeh. Search for some bokeh picture in google images.
The intentional focal blur used in portraits is always stronger. Just some
examples:
