Functional Image Synthesis

	Pan is a declarative language and optimizing compiler for image synthesis, based on a simple but precise semantic model: pictures are functions from infinite, continuous space to colors with partial opacity; and effects are functions over pictures. Because of the centrality of functions, Pan is based on the functional programming paradigm, and is in fact embedded in the functional language Haskell.
