Looks very interesting.

Is the pattern infinite?

A thought, triggerd by your pattern: In the crackle pattern, would it be 
possible to make the position of the centeroids controlable by some 
function? 
I'm thinking of something like, put all the centeroids in the centre and 
than give them a random deviation from there with a certain (Gauss) 
distribution. 
Or, make the position of the centeroid in the box depend on another 
pattern. Imagine a wood pattern, in the light parts of it the centeroids 
are "more random" where as in the dark parts they are very close to the 
centre of the box. That would give bands of more and less uniform 
crackles.
Or, with the same wood pattern, in the lighter area's the centeroids are 
closer to the sides of the box and in the darker area they ar closer to 
the center.
