Nice.  I can't tell if that's blobs or a mesh.  If it's blobs, that inevitably
leads to a lot of geometry.  Yikes.  Maybe an area light or some media for the
glow to spice it up?  Could look very sinister.  Like the omega device emitting
a strange glow as it sits, humming, in the corner.  (I have no idea what I'm
talking about either.)  But this fad of dodecahedrons is great.  Nothing says,
"I can do that!" like an enigmatic geometric object.  We could compile an album
and call it Variations on a Theme of Janet.

It's a mesh. It might look better as a blob.

There's a point light in the middle, a blue fill light,
and some scattering media.

Yeah, I figured I could do a dodecahedron too =)
