- In the No. 1 (sept./oct. 1992) of Tech Images Internationales, they talk about
- "meta ball", a unique primitive that makes smooth-surfaced images, and complex
- images produced from only a small amount of data (i.e. only a mere fraction of
- the number required with polygon-based modeling).
-
- They say nothin more interesting; anyone out there knows a bit more about this
- wierd thing?
