Fwiw, imvho, another "fun" way to think about it is that it's an 
infinite DLA like system. Fwiw, here is a special one I did that does 
not use any random numbers, just a field:

(it's finite here, although it can grow forever.)

(another strange one... Another finite view, however its infinite. I 
really need to revisit this experiment...)
