That's amazing, Nathan!  Nice work showing off some of the new features in IPython 2.0.  One small note for people not on unitrefactor... "density" -> "Density", and it worked flawlessly.

I think this opens up a lot of interactive possibilities.  Interactive volume rendering in a notebook would be my favorite :)  If you could have a widget with a transfer function editor, a viewpoint widget, and a camera path widget, I'd be golden.  Then once everything looks good, then you could have the option to render the HD version.

Cheers,
John

Hi all,

I want to share a cool notebook I just made with you all. It uses an
IPython 2.0 javascript widget to interactively control a yt SlicePlot.
Since the widget needs to talk to a live kernel, you'll need to run
the notebook locally to get the full awesomeness.

This took me all of ten minutes to set up based on Fernando's example
[1] and works pretty much out of the box with IPython 2.0.

I highly encourage you to clone the IPython repo and test out the new
version on the master branch. I think this will open up a lot of room
for interactivity and discovery with yt's plot objects.
