This is very simple, but it just worked so well.  It will render by itself, 
showing it's parameters, or you can #include it into your scene.

Pass in any real number to use as a random seed.

 #declare BigFrequency=rand(R)+1;

    function {
     f_sphere(x, y, z, 1.6)
     - f_noise3d(x * SmallFrequency, y * SmallFrequency, z * SmallFrequency)

     + f_noise3d(x * BigFrequency, y * BigFrequency, z * BigFrequency) *
