Since you showed a screen grab from Illustrator, I presume you are asking about how to do it in Photoshop.
By far, the easiest way to generate kaleidoscope effects in PS is to use a (semi) commercial plugin:

If you want to DIY, there are many ways. Here is one tutorial:

Note, however, that the triangular mesh that you show in the above screen grab is not, per se, a kaleidoscope effect. Rather, it is more of a tessellation or "meshing" effect. One can sorta-kinda get it using the "crystallize" filter in PS, but it's easier to get in 3D programs. Google {low poly art}.
HTH,
Tom
