Thanks! It was difficult enough to scrunch this animation down to 500K. I
have made dozens of other animations, in POV, many with elaborate textures
and enironments, and at large frame sizes, up to 800 by 800. These files are
all in the many megabytes. In some I used a series of 500 sections instead of
only 120, to slow things down.

Mark Newbold has made a Java applet, inspired by my animations, in which one
can progressively stellate various 4-polytopes, and take solid sections there
of. If your browser handles Java well, try
