Orbital Swirls are composed of circles orbiting around circles orbiting around circles. The orbiting circles are filled with riso-inspired colors that paint their own orbit. The center circle is composed of layering different sized ellipses that have a maximum possible value for height and width.

The compositions have four defined featured. Three of those are mostly informational. "Orbits" describes the number of circles orbiting around the center circle. "Orbit Color Number" describes the number of colors from the color possibilities used in the composition. "Center Size" describes the maximum diameters for the center ellipses. The fourth feature, "Fill," has a larger effect on the final appearance of the composition. A "Full" value gives the orbiting circles the full color fill to all the orbiting circles. A "Secondaries" value gives full color fill only to the circles orbiting around the first set of orbiting circles. A "Smoke Trails" value has the orbiting circles leaving cloudy trails that illustrate their orbital path.

I enjoyed creating this, and found the final effect entertaining and hypnotic to watch. I hope you enjoy it, too.
