A shell (Jeener surface 1) [Un coquillage (surface de Jeener 1)].
The parametric equations of the Jeener surface 1 are:
ku
F (u,v) = e (1+cos(v))cos(u)
x
ku
F (u,v) = e (1+cos(v))sin(u)
y
ku
F (u,v) = e (2+sin(v))
z
log(2)
k = --------
2.pi
u ∈ [-2.pi,+2.pi]
pi
v ∈ [- ----,+pi]

The attributes of each sphere are chosen as follows:
RADIUS = constant
dF (u,v) dF (u,v)
x x
RED = 1 - K (----------Du + ----------Dv)
R du dv
dF (u,v) dF (u,v)
y y
GREEN = 1 - K (----------Du + ----------Dv)
V du dv
dF (u,v) dF (u,v)
z z
BLUE = 1 - K (----------Du + ----------Dv)
B du dv
8.pi
Du = ------

3.pi
Dv = ------

The atomization process
(displaying a continuous object with a finite number of colored spheres)
reveals the intricate inner details of the surface without
the ambiguities of transparencies, when the apparent variation of the size
of spheres (due to the projection) gives a good depth cue.
