I like this. Brings back memories from a previous lifetime for me....
Unfortunately in my new life as a paranoid fool I don't allow scripting in
messages so I had to look at the source to extract the core link:

Good stuff, simple but elegant. Sorta makes me dizzy :-)

Sorry. I thought that would be a nice way to get the movie to "pop up"
for people.

I am going to do it again with some sort of height field for "ground"
and a somewhat different approach to handling the clock. I still want
to move around the logo but I'd like it to stop for a split second with
the complete logo facing the camera. I'm still not sure how to get the
edges right as per :

Nice, I like the way the pieces move!
I'd suggest that besides rotating the small pieces you also rotate unions of
the pieces at several levels so it all looks more messy and/or complicated.

OK .. I'll give that a thought. I was thinking of giving each piece
its own little identity instead of simply using increaseing steps of CSG
complexity. At the moment I'm doing the following :
1 ) create the little "U" shape and call it an isomer
2 ) flip an isomer and stick it with another to create a logo_bit
3 ) rotate that one and stick it with a logo_bit to create a logo_half
4 ) rotate that one to get the entire logo
With that approach I end up with really just one thing that is
duplicated all over the place and a rotation of the isomer causes the
entire thing to rotate. The results in some structure as well as
symmetry while the pieces flip. Nice but boring after a few rotations.
With your suggestion I will create eight isomers as individuals and
assign a rotation and translation formula to each that is cyclic on the
domain 0 -> 1 . That will that some work but I'll get on it. The
problem still exits of the smooth edges and I think I'll just use a few
cylinders, spheres, and tori to create the edges.

What Codec are you using ? Media Player (v7, Win2K) just gives me
"Cannot playback the video stream: no suitable decompressor can be found."

I got the distinct impression that MP version 7 is not suited for w2k!?
Am I wrong using v. 6.3? I have v. 7 on a w98 machine and it behaves
differently...
