+#
+# This code is: yet another attempt at producing better meshes from
+# implicit surfaces / isosurfaces.  My paper notes from around the
+# same time period describe some more of why and how.
+#
+# This depends on the Python bindings for libfive (circa revision
+# 601730dc), on numpy, and on autograd from
+# https://github.com/HIPS/autograd for automatic differentiation.
+#
+# For an implicit surface expressed in a Python function, it:
+# - uses libfive to generate a mesh for this implicit surface,
+# - dumps this face-vertex data (numpy arrays) to disk in a form Blender
+#   can load pretty easily, (this is done only because exporting and
+#   loading an STL resulted in vertex and face indices being out of sync
+#   for some reason, perhaps libfive's meshing having randomness.)
+# - iterates over each edge from libfive's mesh data,
+# - for that edge, computes the curvature of the surface perpendicular
+#   to that edge,
+# - saves this curvature away in another file Blender can load.
+#
+# There are then some Blender routines for its Python API which load
+# the mesh, load the curvatures, and then try to turn these per-edge
+# curvature values to edge crease weights.  The hope was that this
+# would allow subdivision to work effectively on the resultant mesh in
+# sharper (higher-curvature) areas - lower crease weights should fit
+# lower-curvature areas better, and higher crease weights should keep
+# a sharper edge from being dulled too much by subdivision.
+# 
+# I tried with spiral_implicit, my same spiral isosurface function
+# from 2005 June yet again, as the implicit surface, but also yet
+# again, it proved a very difficult surface to work with.
