* Constructs the forms of organisms from their genetic codes.

* Algorithm:
*
* 1. Consider inital egg cell as a sphere at the origin.
* 2. Use the marching cubes algorithm to generate a mesh from the isosurface formed by the sum of all cells.
* 3. Generate evenly-distributed points across surface area of the mesh (Poisson sample?).
* 4. For each point, evaluate morphogenic genes to determine type, direction, and color of the next cell.
* 5. Create new cells given the output of step 4.
* 6. Go to step 2 and repeat.
