Hello

Just wondering if anyone can help in advice on creating one of those
psychedelic tunnel effects?

Where the tunnel is spinning and it looks as though you are just on an edge
of a bend of the tunnel.

Are their any macros or inc files that can do this?

I know it is cheesy, but I would just like to see if it can be done nicely
with povray.

Thanks

Not sure about this one, aside from the tunnel object itself which could be
a spline and the camera having a path to follow it. You could basically
texture the thing, probably, and animate the texture. Partly mirrored,
partly not, might create a nice effect too. Again, though, I don't know of
any example scripts.
