In another thread Norbert Kern mentioned working through older
contributions of textures for his 300+ materials study and finding
mysterious techniques. I'm with him on being amazed at what others have
worked out over time. His comment reminded me of a particular trick Tek
found 10 years or more back to create lace like patterns from rotations
and warp repeat statements with flipping across axes. I tried again over
the past couple days to make sense of why the trick works at all. Many
experiments and variations and no luck. It is still a mystery to me.
I decided to turn one - not very lace like - result of Tek's trick into
a more complete image before moving on to other things.
