[x3d-public] Generative X3D

With some Facebook friends, I am starting work on a procedural generation
framework.  Originally, with X3D JSON fuzzy test generation, I merely had
chaos.   Now I am thinking about adding order.  That is, there's a scale
that you select for less order and more order, and it moves kind of like a
teeter-totter, moving from order to disorder and back.  One can decide that
0 is maximum order (multiply by zero for example), and 1 is maximum
disorder (multiply by a random number).  As you scale from 0 to 1, you have
increasing chaos, and as you scale from 1 to 0, you have increasing order.
I do not know if I should use [-1,1] or [0,1]. I don't know how to choose
random number ranges yet, just the scale of order and disorder.  It would
seem like I would need to have a "bounding box" for each shape I generate.
I guess I would have to choose some kind of function for moving between
order and disorder.
