Nope.  LOL!  I'm too busy working on my Xmas project with my free time right now.  :P 

Are we even having a Xmas collection/competition this year?  Nobody has posted anything about one yet.  Or have I just jumped the gun and gotten an early start while everyone else is waiting until December to actually begin?

I'm seeing a two power advancing loop, but I must confess that trying to figure out the line control is making my brain smoke...

That's right, structured on circles of increasing radius divided evenly by powers of 2.

It took three tries, twice I started over.

Now if you can get it to rotate with a voice over repeated saying "LOOK into my Eye", then provide an address to send money, I think you could make a fortune. Very neat work. Reminds me of Mandelbrot or Mandrake.

I was playing around with something to recursively create a pattern like this, and the initial start of it looked promising...

Of course, my angle here is much greater than the one bplus used, but you can see where I was making two branches and dividing them out as I go along towards the edge...

My end result, however, ended up looking a ton different than bplus's:

In some ways, this reminds me of a 3d rendering of the internal structure of an apartment building or some such (rotated somewhat), like some of the 3d maps which you could zoom in and out form in some of the old games I used to play...   

Now, anyone can make something PRETTY, with enough effort.   MY question for bplus is to see if he's completely certifiable.  Can he purposely reproduce a mess like this one?  LOL!

Grammar check. Spoiler alert. Your reference to 'circles' (multiple), must by inference, be transferable to 'radius' as 'radii'... Moo Ha Ha...

But I am only increasing one radius in a loop, that leaves behind a circle at each round. I am left with circles and an single big radius at the end.

@Dimster thank you! I have an idea to try now and to quote a friend, Moo Ha Ha...
