It has an interesting look to it, like some kind of strange geological 
formation in a dry seabed. It might be interesting how an isosurface 
using this in a blob pattern would work...
It would probably be faster rendering than a blob object, at least, if 
you use a blob object as input instead of entering the components 
directly into the pattern(the blob object has internal bounding, the 
blob pattern does not...but it does have the ability to use blob 
objects, at least, it does in MegaPOVPlus).

In order to do that, it would have to beat my POV-Script liquid 
simulator, complete with inter-particle forces. I eventually abandoned 
developing it after a 3 hour parse.
