Here comes the second version, now with reflective texture and some other
changes.  

Because the textuing of the superellipsoids is random, things changed from the
first version, i have to try some differend random seeds to get it better again.

Comments welcome of course.

Whats that red glob? - could we see the same scene with the camera pointing the
other way?

It's a pyramid of red superellipsoids right behind the camera position,
distorted by the curved surface of the superellipsoid. (see attached pict)

Maybe i should try to rotate the reflective superellipsoid 45 degrees...

Ahhhh.
From what I saw in the reflection in the first image I expected more of a wall
behind the red blocks but it must just be the reflection off the block that made
me think that.

Why's the entire back wall all look the same? Just checked, same as the first one.

Very cool scene! Architecturally it's kinda like some sort of Aztec temple or
something...

I thought it would be better than all the walls the same style.

Thanks, although it's not what i thought of when doing it (in fact i have no
idea what i thought at all :-).

Sorry, maybe i did not get the point, but i don't understand the purpose of that
sentence (from the pict it should be quite visible that i understand how the
superellipsoid shape works ;-)

It'd be great to see a Tardis reflected in the reflective 
one there.
