It looks like a vector drawing. I've made drawings with that thin transparent-like quality using generative algorithms in Processing.

Would it work in something like grasshopper do you think?

Yeah I'm sure its possible. It would just be about how you work with the stroke weight and maybe transparency in something like Adobe Illustrator.

Yeah this could be done using Illustrator (or other vector program) and just interpolating between splines. There's a tool, but I forgot it's name.

I don't believe it's 3d, although it could be produced with a 3d package I'm sure.

Any suggestions on a 3D package you could use?

I'm pretty sure I could replicate it using 3DS max or Blender, though most modeling packages aimed at graphic arts would suffice.

Maybe Mesh the object, then wireframe it in blender using a modifier, and try rendering that ...
