Circles and other symbols

I do not believe that an explanation is needed regarding the above video.

For the initiated setting, where the conic helix stands, it is based on procedural maps of type noise.

Prior to research, I did not know this, regarding the fish, but I cannot deny my ignorance in such matters.

Triple Tomoe

It seems that Tomoe is an abstract motif typical of the Japanese culture; a triple tomoe encircled (hidari mitsudomoe) would be one of the symbols of Shintoism.

The Ankh is an ancient and sacred Egyptian symbol. From what I understood, after being degraded, it is now considered as junk; an inevitable destiny, probably, of all “sacred” symbols.

Fortunately or unfortunately, once a sacred symbol perishes another one is made.

A video similar to the one that I here propose could be suitable for children with the aim to explain in a playful manner how a musical track works.

A very short sequence of 2D animation. Awfully tiresome procedure and probably not practical in a productive context.
