This is an idea I had when experimenting with what, in my mind, was a kind of 3D Spirograph, but with cubes instead of lines. I started making striped multicolored objects, and my results started hitting me as a kind of M.C Escher-ized version of a Rubik's Cube.

Basically, I like just "playing with it" like a toy (it runs as an application, and morphs into various shapes as you "do" different things), but I felt like making a video render with Quartz Crystal to show it morphing from a cube shape to something more ornate.

I'm flipping it from a "wireframe" outline mode to a solid object for a bit of this, changing color some, to give the look of it kind of fritzing out. I like the thought of tying that visual result to music at some point. I'm likely going to give it the virtual "beach ball" treatment, so that I can fling it around the computer screen and have it bounce all over the place. Totally a desktop toy, frilly app.

I'll post a simple app version of it soon.
