So noted! He did an excellent job, especially that clever bit about employing
f_r - which took me a bit of time to wrap my head around.
http://www.povray.org/documentation/view/3.6.1/448/
f_r(x,y,z) = sqrt( x*x + y*y + z*z )
When used alone, the "R" function gives a surface that consists of all the
points that are a specific distance (threshold value) from the origin, i.e. a
sphere.

Indeed. I think he could get some interesting half-tone effects as well.
rgbf would look great if unmodified spheres of all 3 colors were used.
There's also the potential for using different shapes - boxes, triangles,
hexagons, etc. I'm also thinking that using cones would give a Voronoi effect.
