Experimental Staircase

Here's a more experimental development of the staircase below with a pretty complicated (at least for me) merge in Photoshop of four different layers:

I like the puzzle-like quality of the colored patches upon the gray-and-white "ground plan". And I like the element of random-ness when the patches were created by separating the lightest and the darkest areas of the original image.

But as I sifted through the myriads of filters in PS I found it (again) pretty hard to pre-visualize any of those effects and was pretty fast lost. I had an idea of what I liked to do but never even came close. So this image is sort of a by-product of my research into the depth of filter algorithms...
