An interesting question is to what extent this correlates with the physical structure of reality. The world we see after all is what? The sum of electromagnetic interference patterns? Does that mean that we could divide it into sheaths of basic geometrical layers? Or conversely, could this type of modeling be useful in visual simulations? (Due to computational efficiency or some other factor) I suspect this is treading over worn terrain here but as a non-specialist in these areas I don't know.
