Found on top of the spine (view is from inside the set).

Let (x,y,z) be the coordinate of the last point in the iteration.

The rgb-Values of the surface color is given by red=x*x; green=y*y and blue=z*z.

Zoom in the last scene with 13 iterations.

Interesting notion. It seems to only yield coherent patterns in the sections where the iteration rate's too low to show all the details, but the pattern that it does yield looks sort of like a picture of what's going to be there as you iterate. I assume the pattern changes slightly as you modify the iteration count, but are there substantial changes? All in all, I like the idea.

Yes, definitely an interesting coloring method going on there.    cheesy

It would have been quite unique to use a photograph used for the coloring, for example somebody's face.  
Imagine all of those little faces at the end of those "stalks".

Same Mandelbulb scene (its exactly the same 3D body), but 1 more iteration steps for coloring.

how does this perform on a smooth iteration animation?

That would work just as well.  Whatever image a person wanted to use for the coloring of an area would make for some very interesting "bulbs".

These additional images were interesting also.

Why does there not seem to be areas where the colors are more blended? Everything looks like it's either red, green or blue and not mixed.

That's true. It looks like the transitions between colors are just so fast you can't really see them, probably because of the normal behavior of the points as they iterate--it looks like the points tend to stay near axes.

looks like the colouring could be iteration-additive or something, so that you automatically mix all the colours per iteration to do a final either nice and smooth or boring (that has to be tried out^^) gradient smiley

The color combination works, but some drawings are are weird.
