That's remind me one of my Debian's wallpaper inspired by 
http://empirium.free.fr/defis/defi003/Full/Exether_03_a.jpg and made with :

#declare swirl = text {
   ttf   "openlogo2.ttf",  "l",  5,  0
   rotate x*90
   scale <10,0.33,10>
   translate <-3,.25,-4>
   translate <-0.7,0,0>
}

#declare pochoire1 = merge {
#declare i=0;
#while(i<30000)
   #declare posX = SRand(R1)*10;
   #declare posZ = SRand(R1)*10;
   #declare posY = 0;
   #declare vert = rand(R1)/2.5+0.25;
   #if(inside (swirl, <posX,posY,posZ>) >= 1.0)
         box {
           <-0.15,-18,-0.15>,<0.15,0.1,0.15>
           scale gros
           translate <posX,posY,posZ>
           translate <0,vert,0>
           }
   #end
   #declare i=i+1;
#end
}

openlogo2.ttf created from Debian EPS logo with FontForge (font creation 
free software available under GNU/Linux).
