What you're experiencing is a known bug with some patterns, such as granite,
bozo, turbulence etc. These patterns will start to act strangely at large
negative distances from the origin (e.g. -10000 for bozo, -10000/128 for
granite). A workaround is to translate your pattern in the positive direction.
