Is it possible to fill space with a branching system of closed pipes, that has a strong dynamic spatial orientation?

A simple set of modules follows carefully defined rules, that ensure the result is horizontal rather than omnidirectional, yet it creates closed pipe loops that intertwine also in the third direction. It would be entirely impossible to achieve such density of pipes with growth algorithms or manually. The requirement of generating a closed lopped system of pipes was easy to achieve with Monoceros.
