yes, i probably need to flip the function, but it still produces
3 patters instead of one.

the height of the normals is also not the problem, because making
the function smaller makes the patters more faint but does not move
the 3 patterns closer together.

i dit some testing with making the function a normalised vector and
change the direction of the vector depending on the function, but that
did not do the trick either.

jaap.
