Spiral

Draws a spiral that winds outward from the center. Control the number of turns and the exponent to shape whether it expands linearly or logarithmically.

Inputs

Controls

Resolution: Low, Medium, High, or Very High. Higher resolutions matter most at high turn counts.

Ideas

• Animate Turns with a slow oscillator for a spiral that grows and shrinks over time.
• Set Exponent below 1 for a logarithmic spiral that opens quickly then slows, for a more natural-looking expansion.
• Feed into Duplicator for tunnel or vortex effects: duplicated spirals with progressive scale create depth.

Tips

• The Spiral produces an open path (not closed). The start is at the center, the end is at the outer edge.
• High turn counts with many points create dense, visually rich patterns but cost more scanner time.
