Wow!  That's gorgeous!  I can imagine some good uses for it.

To see about making an animated fly-through, I zoomed way in by using trace() to
place the camera on a surface a few iteration levels above the look_at point on
the iteration ten (10) surface here rendered.  Since I picked starting and
target points more-or-less at random, I have no idea where this surface is, and
there is only a single light source placed at the camera location.  I also
shrunk the contained_by (too much, it turned out) to avoid overheating the CPU
when the sun goes nova.

Are we having too much fun yet?
