Notes

LinearPointNoise can be used to add (controlled) randomization to any geometry. It can be used as a subtle effect to offset the "unnatural perfection" of computer-generated geometry ... or it can be used to create large distortions as a modeling tool in its own right. As an example, you could combine LinearPointNoise with a PolyGrid to create a landscape. Apply multiple LinearPointNoise filters to your pipeline with different frequencies for more interesting effects.
