Hi Peter,

It was a busy weekend for me, but I made some time to watch the video.

It's pretty impressive that your dad was able to write a raytracer, drivers, and
other software from scratch!

I also liked the historical thread linking your dad's early renders, Pixar, and
your attempts to recreate them.

Especially interesting was the process to create that heart!
Making a clay model and then actually slicing it and "scanning" it by hand!
It's just about the complete reverse of 3D printing - going from the 3D object
to a projection in 2D.  :O

Looking forward to more interesting ideas and Pov-Ray scenes!

(Especially amusing was when you said, "... you decided that I was old enough
for you to teach me about Pov-Ray.")  :D
