Procedural hard-surface geometry with Boolean/Fracture SOPs

I came across some really interesting procedural hard-surface topology here:

He's definitely using Houdini for the workflow as seen in this post - 

 

I've been trying to figure out a workflow to generate fractures with workable topology but without success. When I try to push the boolean SOP with outputs from fracture SOPs anywhere near the kind of detail/shapes he's getting the geometry totally breaks down. It doesn't look like he's using any VDB workflow, based on the video it looks like it's purely mesh-based. Is anyone here able to get a better read on the approach he's using to get those kinds of clean fractures, gaps, and mesh separation?
