    i don’t have pi, so i may not be able to give you the best advice on this… but if you need the particles to be 3d and revolve/move behind the subject, particular (from trapcode.com) might be a good option.

    with particular you can define an obscuring layer to create the illusion of the particles moving behind the subject.

    for an illustration, check this thread out by graymachine a few months ago.

    You could use AE to animate the paths for the orbs then transfer the position data to Particle Illusion.
