Circles? Straight lines? or …

See the Pen Mathematical Circles by Dave (@sixhat) on CodePen.

I’ve been playing with some optical illusions, mainly in p5.js and recently came across this one on twitter, so I decided to re-implement it in codepen. It is just a bunch of circles moving around in Circular motion? is it? Or is it not? Well, Linear, Circular… who cares. The illusion is all that matters.
