Cool! Looks much smoother than the POV one. No create some colorful 
gradients within the attractor, add a "create random attractor"-button 
and there goes the new wallpaper-machine :)

Do I understand it correctly that the attractor is a surface (or could 
be represented as one)? It looks like it, so you could try to build a 
(smooth) mesh from it. Then you could also do fancy stuff like nice 
finishes etc. Of course you'd need POV again to do so.
