(There will be a potted history of Takehiko Mizutani inserted here, once I have the permission of The Daily Telegraph to reproduce the relevant parts of the article.)
If you want to see the POV source code that I used, click here. (On most browsers, you can shift-click or control-click if you want to save the source code to look at it later.) This scene file was inspired by an article in the Daily Telegraph describing Mizutani and giving a photo of a reproduction Mizutani table. I intend to reproduce part of the article above.
