This is the 3D version of my Dance of the Number Cycles project. Up/Down Right/Left arrows and a/z keys rotate the object along the x,y,z axis. To understand how these patterns relate to simple multiplication watch: Mathologer https://youtu.be/qhbuKbxJsk8
The 3D interface is a based on a projection algorithm I developed some years ago to make Geometer's Sketchpad display 3D curves. I learned a tremendous amount from @Mr_Pyro_ 3D Wireframe Engine project about optimizing rendering and keyboard effects. Music Credit: Sia
