How to find all the intersection points between tw

I'm wondering about the best way to find all the intersection points (to roundoff error) between two sets of contour lines. Wich is the best method? Here is the example:

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import numpy as np
x = np.linspace(-1,1,500)
X,Y = np.meshgrid(x,x)
Z1 = np.abs(np.sin(2*X**2+Y))
Z2 = np.abs(np.cos(2*Y**2+X**2))
plt.contour(Z1,colors='k')
plt.contour(Z2,colors='r')
plt.show()

I want some similar to:

intersection_points = intersect(contour1,contour2)
print intersection_points
[(x1,y1),...,(xn,yn)]

    intersection_points = tree.data[indices[np.isfinite(distances)]]
    return intersection_points

    return np.array([points[cluster].mean(axis=0)
                     for cluster in clusterlists(groups)])

                         for linecol in contour.collections

Z2 = np.abs(np.cos(2 * Y ** 2 + X ** 2))
contour1 = plt.contour(Z1, colors='k')
contour2 = plt.contour(Z2, colors='r')

points1 = contour_points(contour1)
points2 = contour_points(contour2)

intersection_points = intersection(points1, points2, eps)
intersection_points = cluster(intersection_points, cluster_size)
plt.scatter(intersection_points[:, 0], intersection_points[:, 1], s=20)
plt.show()

yields

Working from the answer of @unutbu and an intersection algorithm plucked straight from numpy-and-line-intersections I've come up with this. It is slow owing to the brute-force sort of way of finding the intersections and the loops within loops within loops. There might be a way to make the loops faster but I'm not sure about the intersection algorithm.

    slope = lambda line: (lambda d: d[:,1]/d[:,0])(np.diff(line, axis=0))

    x11, x21 = np.meshgrid(A[:-1, 0], B[:-1, 0])
    x12, x22 = np.meshgrid(A[1:, 0], B[1:, 0])

Edit: find_intersections above does not handle vertical and horizontal lines nor overlapping line segments. The linelineintersect function below does handle those cases but the whole process is still slow. I have added a count so you have some idea of how long ther is to go. I also changed contour1 = plt.contour(Z1,colors='k') to contour1 = plt.contour(X,Y,Z1,colors='k') so the axes and your intersections are in the actual X, and Y coords of your grid rather than a count of your grid points.

I think the problem is that you just have a lot of data. In one contour set there are 24 lines with a total of 12818 line segments, the other contour set has 29 lines with 11411 line segments. That's a lot of line segment combinations to check (696 calls to linelineintersect). You can get a result more quickly by using a coarser grid to calculate your functions on (100 by 100 was much faster than your original 500 by 500). You might be able to do some sort of line sweep algorithm but I don't know how to implement such things. The line intersection problem has many applications in computer games and is known as collision detection - there must be some graphics library out there that can quickly determine all the intersection points.
