The function was displayed in the picture, it was:

function { (sin(x*3-1)-0.2) & (sin(y*3+2)-0.2) & (sin(z*3-1)-0.2) }

but it was just a regular grid, so it would take quite a lot of work to change
it into something like your pict.

I had a look at the 'cells' pattern source code and found it would not be very
difficult to "smooth" it for better use in isosurface functions. Of course the
result would differ from your picture.
