Am I the only one who finds media utterly incomprehensible? I want to make a
glow effect, with a bright center and a dimmer exterior. So far, I've only
succeeded in making a dark circle. What am I doing wrong?

I also struggle with media, but in this case I can help

Create your media container at the origin and translate as required
sphere {
<0,0,0>,1
.....
translate <-2,5,0>
}

You may want to tweak the sampling parameters, it looks a little grainy

And the sphere has to be hollow.

It *was* hollow. Try reading the rest of the code too.

It was quite hidden :P
Writint obfuscated code doesn't help to read code... :)
