It's the kaleidoscope effect. Looks very distinct. I think it's pretty useful for generating interesting symmetrical patterns. After all the most interesting patterns come from maths and thus nature not human imagination. I've basically taken my own creativity out of the picture. The initial seed was only a small image around 256x256 pixels.
Ok, pixies are now localized to each tree. tree wave shaders plugged in, did skybox. Now creating normal maps, gonna do some SSMF and friends and then it shall be a magical day.
to be fair considering the scales, I'd rather see a meadow of flowers done using the same shader as the little pixies but less glowy more pastelly to fit in with the overall light. If done with the grass right coupled with the tree waveyness it would look like the grass is blowing in the wind to those who aren't up close
