I'm just an egomaniac.

Ah, ya caught me.  See, I've spent all that free time I should have been
spending on tracing on debugging instead.  The last time I spent any serious
time thinking about and developing a scene was for the "ruins" round of the
IRTC, and I didn't finish that.  Before that, it was the entry I actually
submitted for the "Imaginary Worlds" round.  Most of the rest of my work
can be found in the weird textures I've posted to this server here and
there.

Truth be told, I'm far better at modeling individual objects and textures 
than I am at composing them all in a pleasing scene, so most of my work 
never gets past that stage.
