IMAGE DESCRIPTION: 
    A holographic pad for modelling artificial worlds.


DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED: 


  I got this idea after reading about the two people that were modifying LCD
monitors to display 3 dimensional objects. I thought that something like that
could be really useful for modelling. Instead of a monitor I imagined a pad
similar to digital drawing boards, that is able to holographically display the
objects.
  All objects were created from within POV-Ray Unofficial's own texteditor. The
cords were created using Jochen Lippert's sphere_sweep primitive.
