Do it some more and you'll get karl urban.

Well, Karl Urban is one half of the input there. He played Bones in the Kelvin timeline.

Dammit Jim! I’m a doctor, not a mobius strip!

I'm just laughing at the image of McCoy's face stretched along this:

rainbow gradient mobius strip

I just realized that while I know how it could be done, that there are programs that can map an image onto a 3d shape, and that you could say, tile the faces on the strips, maybe use a side on view so that he's looking at the back of his own head.

There are also ways to animate the image so that he's constantly chasing his own head.

Then I realized I don't really know how to use of the programs that I'd need. I'm pretty sure Blender could do it all...

A further realization that easy ways to do it is to just tile his dace, (preferably a side view) on the Möbius strip you linked using Paint. It wouldn't look as good, but it would work.

Wouldn't be complaining. Karl Urban is not exactly hard to look at
