Something I did last year (among all those other projects): 
http://members.chello.nl/a.c.linnenbank/texts/ECGparts.pdf . It involved 
some programming, somewhat more of Blender, I did use POV-ray, and I did 
manage to name Poser in a conference paper. I know it is hard to believe 
but I get paid to do these things.
