Let's travel along a Möbius strip! • Möbius strips have the property that traveling in a full circle swaps the "chirality" (i.e. handed-ness) • The red ball is initially on the left, but after going in a circle we see that the blue ball is on the left!pic.twitter.com/KOznKHPR2G

I like to think I'm pretty good at Mathematica but that is some wizardry right there

Well thanks! It’s really not too bad.. I use MM a lot and I’ve tried other software but honestly MM is super east and useful .. right now I’m trying to figure out how to post process to somehow keep the higher resolution on twitter

The animation looks beautiful locally but once it goes into twitter it gets killed

That's probably because your output is higher size and twitter is compressing it? If that is the case, you could use ffmpeg(linux command line) to compress it almost losslessly before uploading!

I’ve tried ffmpeg it no longer supports .mp4 compressions without overwriting.. I’m fiddling around with imagemagick atm

Why is compression without overwriting an issue? I maintain two directories. ffmpeg inputes videos from the first and outputs to the other..
