I tried my variant with increased turbulence to break up
the alignment even more:
warp {turbulence <0.4,0.2,0.2> lambda 1.0 octaves 1}
And tested it with a height_field:
#declare f_alienese = function
{
pigment { AlieneseProportional scale 0.07}
}
height_field
{
function 1024,1024
{
f_bozo(x*3,y*3,z*3) - 0.04*f_alienese(x,y,0).red -
0.04 * f_noise3d(x*250,y*250,z*250)
}
pigment {color White}
translate <-0.5,0,-0.5>
rotate 180*y
scale <6,1,6>
}
I think the results look quite promising. Of course,
for a Rosetta stone you'd also need a translation into
a widely known language such as Klingonese ;)

Indeed! Very happy to see that the HF idea works so well. (Thanks for posting
the code example, too.) Makes me want to whip up an isosurface-block version, or
perhaps some kind of superellipsoid/HF difference.

LOL. And, of course, that old stand-by, Greek--the well-known intergalactic
language...

I didn't realize they made a translation of MS-DOS to Glabraxian III ... :)
Good work!

Don't talk to loud, or they will start printing contracts and publishing
end user licences in Glabraxian ;)

I think they already do ;)
