Structure Synth is a cross-platform application for generating 3D structures by specifying a design grammar. Even simple systems may generate surprising and complex structures. The design grammar approach was originally devised by Chris Coyne (for a 2D implementation see the popular Context Free Art).
Features:
Graphical environment with multiple tabs and OpenGL preview
Integration with third-party renderers (such as Sunflow and POV-Ray) using a flexible template based export system.
Built-in raytracer (with ambient occlusion and depth-of-field)
Native OBJ

Very interesting. I'm always looking for simple ways to generate abstract images for various purposes. This one gives you the ability to make beautiful objects by a few lines only.
Look at the developer's site. There are only two pages to read to understand the basic grammar of the script language. And you don't have to be a scientist to understand.
