This image can be generated with the following code:

#!/usr/bin/env python3 import soy from time import sleep client = soy.Client() scene = soy.scenes.Scene() cam = soy.bodies.Camera(scene) cam.position.z = 15 projector = soy.widgets.Projector(client.window, cam) light = soy.bodies.Light(scene) light.position = soy.atoms.Position((-2, 3, 5)) sphere = soy.bodies.Sphere(scene, 1.0) sphere.subdivisions = 1200 sphere.radius = 4.0 sphere.material = soy.materials.Colored() sphere.material.ambient = soy.atoms.Color('red') sphere.material.diffuse = soy.atoms.Color('red') sphere.material.specular = soy.atoms.Color('white') if __name__ == '__main__' : sleep(10)

The code to render a sphere can be found in libsoy/src/bodies/Sphere.gs, its written in Genie and OpenGL.
