I have achieved quite good results with motion blurring, both for
stills and animations. My latest anim was a 1:1000000000000 Mandelbrot
zoom with radial blur... it's cool. The idea is to render *a lot* of
frames and average them using an average pigment. For the M-set anim I
have rendered 1500 frames 160x120 no AA / png (<500 bytes/frame!).
This was really fast. Then I rendered a 300-frame anim, and each frame
was an average of 50 frames back. I can post the source if there's
interest. BTW just an hour ago I sent a mail to the IRTC admins asking
if this is legal... I'll wait and see.

Peter
