I've reassembled my sampled bricks into a couple of macros, in case anyone
wanted to play with it more easily.

See thread

// call this macro instead of a pattern type in a pigment

#macro BrickSampledPattern(Bricksize, SamplePig)
 #local BSX = Bricksize.x;
 #local BSY = Bricksize.y;
 #local BSZ = Bricksize.z;
 #local SamplePigFn = function { pigment { SamplePig } }
 #local PigFnOffset = function {
  SamplePigFn(x - 0.5*BSX*floor(y/BSY), y, z - 0.5*BSZ*floor(y/BSY)).x
 }
 pigment_pattern {
  function {
   PigFnOffset(
    BSX*floor((x+0.5*BSX*floor(y/BSY))/BSX) + 0.5*BSX,
    BSY*floor(y/BSY) + 0.5*BSY,
    BSZ*floor((z+0.5*BSZ*floor(y/BSY))/BSZ) + 0.5*BSZ
   )
  }
  translate z*0.5*BSZ
 }
#end
