Making messy cables ball

Hi, I’m a visual artist and I’m working on a project for my next presentation and I need create a ball with messy cable. Something like this http://cdn.makeuseof.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/Colorful-Electrical-Wires.png?x92042

I’m a beginner any help will be much appreciated. Thank you

Hello.
I would start by drawing circles, then divide them into segments, then move segments to create the “random” look.
Then draw a perpendicular circle and use the follow me tool to create the “pipe”.

There is a useful extension called “lines2tubes” than can automate the extrude step.

Hi,
Check this plugin: Helix along curve. It has various parameters to create randomness you need.
