But if you look closely, it's just one model being rotated...

If anyone has info on how I can obtain a physical manifestation of this model, I would like to put it on a rotating base on my desk and stare at it for hours instead of working.

I was just playing around with 3ds max trying to recreate this. It's a Torus Knot. I set the settings of P:7, and Q:3, and it seems to look the same. Throw a funky material on it, get a nice rendering package, and voila. I see no reason why you couldn't get this 3d printed, and have some sort of spinning platform to store this on.

That would be a very cool conversation piece. Particularly if the spinning platform were one that was hard to tell it was moving.

Maybe even put it in a glass case with mirrors all around. That would be really complex looking.
