The pattern on the floor/wall looks good.
No ideas about development, but it's a real good start.

The sphere would look kind of cool with a screaming face on it.. IMO, of course.

Yeah, make it into some kind of Borg sphere or something.

That's what I though of, too.
It looks like a Borg pod last seen exploding in "StarTrek:First Contact".

Cool image, Rune.
My suggestion would be to animate it, with kind of a transcendtal anime
style slow motion explosion. With some overly melodramatic music in the
background if you can swing it.

I'm not sure what you mean. As picture of a screaming face mapped onto the
sphere?

The sphere is made of 6 faces, like if it was a cube. Each face has 4x4
pieces. Each piece is an intersection of 4 planes and a sphere, and then a
smaller sphere is differenced away from it. All the pieces are mapped with
bump_maps. Some of the pieces are translated a bit away from the center.
That's it, basically.
Greetings,
Rune

I was thinking more along the lines of displacement mapping.

Wicked cool. Maybe change the green glow to a more
"techie" blue or cyan glow, but otherwise, don't change it!
It's perfect!
Is the background an imagemap?

I've made some minor changes to the image and uploaded a 800x600 version to
my website.
The source code is also available from there.
