This page has 3 dimensional models of the figures discussed in the Dimension series, Parts 1, 2 and 3. They can be viewed and (possibly) rotated with Quicktime and some other programs. They are not a common format for most browsers and you may not be able to open them without downloading plug ins. Quicktime 3d and plug ins can be downloaded for free from http://www.apple.com/quicktime. Versions are available for Mac and Windows. This should allow you to view the movies. You may not be able to view them online. You may have to download (save) them. You may also need to click on the image twice (double click) to set it spinning.
There are also models in the 3d metafile format. I cannot view them online without re-purchasing Quicktime Pro from Apple. I had it, but it expired and I don't have enough use for it to repay. So, I don't think you will be able to manipulate these models online. You may have to download (save) them. Even then there are no guarantees. I can manipulate them on my Imac but not on my PC. If you like, I will send you a copy of the metafile by email. Just let me know. These are true 3d models which can be rotated, zoomed and magnified. Hopefully they are worth the effort.
Quickdraw 3d metafiles have a mime type: x-world/x-3dmf, Suffix is .3dmf
Quicktime movies have a .mov suffix
