This is a 3D version of a program made by tsoding: https://github.com/tsoding/binviz Binary Visualization based on Christopher Domas talk: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4bM3Gut1hIk

• Scan the triples of bytes of a file with a sliding window. (AA BB CC DD ... -> (AA, BB, CC) (BB, CC, DD) ...);
• Interpret the triples of bytes as coordinates on a 256x256x256 3D volume;
• Place a dot for each triple in the volume;
• The more frequent the dot, the brighter it is;
• Different patterns emerge depending on the type of the data of the file.

$ cc -o nob nob.c
$ ./nob binviz ./nob.c
$ ./3dviewer nob.c.binviz3d

The mesh might get so big it isn't displayed correctly. In such case you can raise the threshold with the tab key to ignore more darker points.
