Tarquin Publications has a new mathematics magazine
http://www.tarquinbooks.co.uk/info.asp?cid=&display=news
from http://www.pims.math.ca/knotplot/
Here you will find a collection of knots and links, viewed from a (mostly) mathematical perspective. Nearly all of the images here were created with KnotPlot, a fairly elaborate program to visualize and manipulate mathematical knots in three and four dimensions. You can download KnotPlot and try it on your computer (see the link below), but first you may want to look at some of the images in the picture gallery.
