This is a very cool figure. I could go on at length; but it's 2am on Monday morning (oh, noes). Two quick points:

"The tetrix is the three-dimensional analog of the Sierpinski triangle." As it gets more complex (you're up to a frequecy of 4) the surface approaches infinity, as the volume approaches 0.

As Bucky Fuller (RIP these 20 years!) would have called it; "Our good friend the tetrahedron" is the basis of his Synergetic geometry.

"The minimal system with the fewest possible points is a tetrahedron -- four points make a primitive volume with an inside and an outside. The canonical tetrahedron has a volume of one."
