Just playing with a bogus screwing transform applied on the mesh of a 
cube while waiting for 3.5.
(It was intended to screw, but in fact, it applied a rotation
of <g,g,g> (as per "rotate") for each point, where g is proportional to
the distance to the great diagonale)

The screwing transform has been fixed since, but I still found that 
there is a kind of interesting effect, at least for low value, before
the cube starts penetrating itself. Looks like some kind of jelly...
The mesh was dynamically generated by a variant of the tesselation patch
applied on a box.

A very cool animation: it's smooth and cycles nicely in my MediaPlayer. 
The auto-penetration is weird :)
