Lol it repeats alright... blah blah blah "it doesn't technically repeat"... To the brain it does, it's like white noise. If I showed you an evolving animation of this shit for 3 hours it would be torture. Someone should measure something like the multiscale entropy of this pattern.

Edit: I will say the coolest thing about this is the cross-disciplinary connection hints at a metapattern: https://youtu.be/48sCx-wBs34?t=1007

What would multisce entropy prove about this pattern? I’m not even sure how you’d apply it. Iirc, multiscale entropy is specifically for timeseries.

It needn't be multiscale entropy precisely, but anything similar to it.

The way I intuit it, though I could be wrong, is that as you have a "ground level" or "close" measurement of white noise, it appears complex and varied. As you go up and up in the scale, you get the "eagle eye's view" of white noise, you realize "oh shit, it's all kinda the same!"

So it wouldn't necessarily prove anything, but if the entropy dropped as you scaled, it would show that the pattern isn't really that complex, and there's a lot of hidden redundancy. I mean it is called a "pattern" after all to be fair.
