So how does one decide to create something like this? This is absolutely spectacular, but what spraks this effort? I can only guess the thinking process involved:

slowly rolling out of bed in the morning ....oO(I wonder how Alice felt when she was falling into the Rabbit hole)
some time later, while brushing teeth ....oO(I bet I can model it in Perl)
later still, while sipping the mandatory cup of coffee ....oO(Better still, I'll do a flythrough of the Mandelbrot!)
