At first, I thought it was a 3-D stereo image-- with one of the images flipped
horizontally (that is, meant to be viewed in a mirror). The outer rims of the
two images seem to have corresponding features. So I flipped one of the images
in Photoshop, and tried combining them in my eyes and brain; but my stereo
assumption didn't work out (except *maybe* for some of the craggy features at
the very outer rim?)

Haha, that'll give you a headache.
The base object is a displacement mapped parametric half sphere mesh,
scaled and rotated. Both objects left an right only differ in rotation and
the random rotation in the smaller objects. The UV_mapping is scaled
inverted to the object so the scale of the image stays the same,
