Hello and welcome to the forums   

Have you tried Terry Gintz's stuff? 

http://www.fractalforums.com/mystic-fractal-programs/the-latest-programs-available/

has a nice list.

His are among the best for mac that handle custom formulas. 

Good luck and I Hope it helps.

so, please take a look at "fragmentarium"? with that you got everything out of the box (hmm, mac support i dont know)<- expect of this, you get a very nice collection of example scripts, and one special  axolotl script can be downloaded to it as well. it is a formula parser in its - nowadays - most simpistic form, by using the shader compilers that come with your gfx card
definately worth a look:
