I believe the trouble here is that radiosity will combine the pigments, red
and blue in this instance.  However, I'm not seeing much of any radiosity in
the entire scene anyhow for some reason so I don't know why this scene lacks
what Tony's had.
Anyway, you'll pretty much have to use media atmosphere and lights if you
don't go with MegaPOV 'glow'.  Or maybe even just a trick of custom spot
lighting shining only on areas where there should be an aura on the adjacent
object.
Heck, on second thought forget that.  Just create duplicates of all lit
objects and fill them with emitting media, scaling them a bit larger but
still in the same postions.
