Sooooooo, you want a 3-D representation of an object that by its very 
nature is at least 4 dimensional? 

Hmm, this could be tricky. In best Red Dwarf style, are you after a 
swirly sort of thing or a sparkly sort of thing or perhaps a swirly, 
sparkly sort of thing?

Take a starfield image. Load it into a graphics package. Perform 
every imaginable distortion possible. Print out. Screw up piece of 
paper. Place on table.
