Part One - What says Mad Scientist more than a jar full of floating  
(artificial) eyes sitting on the coffee table.

It's been some time since I posted, this was a result of playing with some  
textures and a couple of macros for randomly translating spheres within a  
set perimeter without intersecting. Need to find an additional pigment for  
the iris, something like a stylised flamberge shape, and I'm still not  
happy with the lighting, this was the best result so far.

A jar full of floating brains sitting on the coffee table?

A Jacob's Ladder device arcing away on top of the coffee table?

Or how about Pat Robertson getting elected to the school board.  That'll
make a Scientist *really* Mad.

Should be small brains then... perhaps those of mice?

Mad scientists? I just would say Hans Moravec, Marvin Minsky, Ray 
Kurzweil... and if I had a science degree, sometimes even myself ;-)!

See you in Khyberspace!
