Know those useless things you see around in old stores or in the attick?
Well... here's one of them. No radiosity, just a huge area light.

I dunno, it struck me as if it could make a really nice paperweight. It 
looks really great BTW. I guess a huge area light is comparable to a 
non-conventional ambient rad light so long as you don't make too many 
diffuse objects.

Place some cooking paper or a teatowel around it and it will protect your

If it was only about 3 feet in diameter, it could be used as a guard rail on
some sort of balncony structure.

It's a darn shame they don't make them useless things bigger.
