trying, and so far failing.  :-(

the main difference between the example code posted by WF Pokorny and mine is
(a) no enclosing sphere or box, and (b) use of emission colours other than
white.

I have also tried a variation based on the same code which attempted to
implement Alain's idea of a union with a common material, no success either.

so I'll post a zip with a wip test scene file and an ini "driver" in
p.text.scene-files; the sixth frame is where I'd hoped the hidden object would
interact with the majority of the (few sample) notes (it's all pretty crude, I'm
no artist :-)).  frames take a couple of seconds to render.

if anyone could have a look to tell me whether the approach is viable
(everything's in arrays, basically), and where I'm "missing the boat", I'd much
appreciate it.

thank you.


regards, jr.
