I'm lucky to remember this at all, where've you been?  :-D Only joking.

IIRC that isosurface and phase-shifting wasn't keeping to a single surface.
That meaning, there were parts filling the voids where the bump pattern
hollowed out, as it changed. Similar to a boiling lava lamp fluid. If you
get what I'm saying. At least that it seemed likely to need a way to retain
a singular surface to resemble what you wanted to do. Like a turbulent water
surface yet no splashes, that's a better way of saying it rather than
boiling lava lamp I guess. Off-hand I'm not sure how that would be
accomplished without trial and error to modify the pattern (mix with
gradient y?).
