Can Bill Gosper or anyone else explain what's going on with https://twitter.com/algoritmic/status/772699702064254976 ("Moore curve drawn with epicycles")?

Unless I am very mistaken this is more and more terms of the Fourier series (in polar coordinates). The disks seem to indicate the magnitude of the terms of the series (but there seem to be too many disks for my feeling after the first go-around is finished). One of the many many cases where people really should indicate what they are doing when putting pictures/movies online. Best regards, jj
