voxel \ˈvok-səl\
noun: the three-dimensional analogue of a pixel
Etymology:
vo (from
volumetric) +
xel (from
pixel)
Voxel looks as if its etymology could be
vox (Latin
voice) +
el (from
element), which would make a voxel the audio equivalent of a pixel. (This, of course, is not the case.)
=O Tricksy, tricksy voxel! (Oh by the way, I saw that you posted "perseverate" a while ago and felt very special. <3)

As for the drawings, variations on a subject work well with this blog format because a pictorial evolution can unfold over the course of a few days.
