You have no idea how much fun this was to make. :-)

You know you've been raytracing too long when the alarm clock goes off, 
and you try thinking: object { SnoozeButton translate y*-0.25 } and then 
can't figure out why the alarm keeps ringing.

IOR as a function of time.

   interior {
     ior 1.5 * clock
     dispersion 1. + (0.1 * clock)
   }

where clock goes from zero to one.

I thought it would be cool to see the head distort with the IOR, but I 
think that the real attraction of the finished animation is the 
caustics. The ~twelve hour animation time was completely worthwhile. :-)

(BTW, you can see the spot on the left side of the cube where the 
glasses punch through the surface...)

You know you've been raytracing too long when you spend 4 days at work 
wondering how to render your tongue.
