    Hello everyone,

    I was just wondering if anyone have any suggestions how to create and animate something like this? I believe is something I could do with Echo, right?

    If anyone has any advice it would be really appreciated!!

    The lines in a mobius like strip?

    I would like the lines to randomly move but still maintaining that sort of shape.

    This is the closest thing I could find in terms of tutorial but still not quite there:

    The shape you posted is a Lorenz-attractor.

    After Effects isn’t really suited to drawing complex mathematical equations with shapes and such. Processing is a great alternative:

    here’s a tutorial on this particular shape:
