It might be interesting to calculate the 'primeness' of complex numbers and then render the values as shades of grey on the complex plane.
Some years I did something similar for the 'divisibility' of prime numbers and the result was pretty interesting:

The most common interpretation of a 'complex prime' is the gaussian prime. When rendered on the complex plane looks like this:

Looks rather random. Maybe going from 'is prime or not' to 'primeness' would reveal some more insight.
