Yes, it would be a very interesting project indeed!

I promise that if I find some free time, I'll think about it...

Thanks for the suggestions,

That's really elegant. Are you using your own POV patch to create this?

I made a C program to create the simulation. The meshes are saved as .inc
files which I later render them with POVRay

I'm truly glad that you liked it.

Thanks,

Fernando.
