Hey all,

Many have wondered what the quantum POV particle looks like.  I managed to
get a glimpse of one in a high-speed CSG collision* at the POV particle
accelerator in Geneva.

* for those interested in the technical details:
union {
  object {
    ObjectOne
    translate <-1000+(SpeedOfLite*0.999999999999999*clock),0,0>
  }
  object {
    ObjectTwo
    translate <1000-(SpeedOfLite*0.999999999999999*clock),0,0>
  }
}

That's neat. I like the whole primary color/primary axis thing going on
there. I think it'd be cool to render the particles as media with a bright
glowy center. Put a green on black grid behind it and superimpose some
scientific looking data in the lower left corner or something. Then animate
the particles rotating. :)

I have several different materials for the big sphere, the orbiting colors,
and the background.  I haven't tried media (yet).  I have the code for
animation in place, maybe I'll post an animation in the proper group.

See the animation in binaries.animations.
