How are these created

[stezza]

I have been ask if we could produce something along the lines of this image, but does anyone know how these are created?
Rather nice!

Looks like it could be displacement on a deformed... ...possibly torus.
I have see 3d fractal generators produce similar stuff. Look at http://mandelbulb.com/

Yeah thanks Raven that Mandelbulb was very interesting, I found out that the above image was created in Cinema 4D Mograph I think.

Here's my no-mograph, probably not how they did it (but maybe it is) 10 minute attempt...

and the scene (it's 2018, but there's nothing in there that's 2016 and up I think...
