Cool try!
Model by Danny


if you are interested I have made this little prog :)
It's for Processing (free) but you can adapt for any language :) http://processing.org/
A little fractal effect
Just put your image in the Data folder and copy past these few lines : it's all ;)
code:
size(1024,512);                                  // your image's size in pixel
PImage pilou = loadImage("your image.png");     // any image with a subject + transparent background
 int t = 8;                                    //  minimum height size in pixel
for (int k = 8; k < 513; k = k + t) {      // increase width and height
   for (int y = 0; y < 513; y = y + k) {  //position x,y of each new image on the screen
     for (int x = 0; x < 1023; x = x + k*2) {
     image(pilou,x,y,k*2,k) ;             // draw an reducted image at the x,y position on the screen
     }                                   // end loop x
  }                                     // end loop y
filter(INVERT);                        // invert colors between each new screen, you can erase it
t=t+8;                                // increase  height size in pixel can be anything
}                                    // end loop k
image(pilou,0,0);                   // draw at the end your image :)


Have fun fractalising !

a little model by me :)

Thank you all for your answers!

Michael, but better in the next version of tools to make the deformation geometry, such as Twist, Bend, and so on. This much reduces the time to create complex models, such as Möbius strip, and increase the chances of your wonderful program!

Once again, thank you, all you really helped me!

Alex.

and Pilou has been doing this since zbrush v1 :)
Doesn't this indicate there is a concept :)
And yet, they are still beautiful :)

Ouch, my description was wrong...it tells you to do a 360 degree rotation of the lines and not a 180 degrees rotation, sorry. With a 360 degree rotation of the lines someone can create a cutting object* for a split torus model (Keizo Ushio stone sculpture)...;-)

*Simply cut a torus with it in two halves and then arrange the parts shown like shown in the picture.



Regards
Stefan

One possibility :) (loop curve can have an infinite combinaison)

Some funny images found on the Net ;)

It's only made once a year... Presumably on August Ferdinand Möbius' birthday ;-)
