I think you have a pretty good idea, it make me think of MIT Media lab random Logo [1], 
But I think we can do better.

Like this nice page does with an animated SVG : 
http://www.xn--ole-9la.net/eolienne-anim.html (éole.net with unicode characters for browser that support it)

and inspired by
http://bl.ocks.org/4282586 (d3 js : Three axis rotation, orthographic view )

I'm sure one could make the Scipy Logo animated. 

It would have the advantage of also making the resources cacheable, but we should, 
of course have a fallback on a renderd.

I'll let you imagine what can be done with geolocalisation  and time of the day. 
Lot's of good example here : http://bl.ocks.org/mbostock

Cheers,
