In order to get a smooth enough pattern that the isosurface algorithm 
can use it, you need to use a huge number of samples. It has been tried 
before, but was too slow to be of practical use.
However, I am working on an updated version that has specialized 
proximity functions for each object as well as the existing sampling 
function...this will be much faster for many objects.
