"Spending too much time in front of screens makes your
eyes square." is what parents used to say long ago.

Do you recognise that symbol?
Hey, not sure exactly how these are made, but they are
nice.

A circle (area) is all the points that are within a given maximum
distance from its centre and distance can be calculated differently.
That way a circle can look quite different sometimes.

I just hacked together an AWK script to "render" YinYangs with tune-able
such distance formulas as NetPBM image

and for showing them rendered in Braille-8

Yes, I saw the commands. The only missing piece is the first one in
the command chain
I'm not (yet?) in the mood to turn that into an animation.
As time goes by ...

I converted the MP4 to an animated GIF via an online
converter. Some day I'll look up how to do that locally
too.
Looketh good, yeti! Why crete the GIF directly from a set
of frames, e.g. GIMP or ifsicle:

I first turned the generated frames into a video and was pleased how
compact the result was. Then turned that MP4 into a GIF and was shocked >about the size.
If I find out how to loop a video, I'll prefer those because of the
size. Maybe even that isn't needed and people find the place where to
tick a loop option in the video player?
Maybe building the GIF directly from the frames can generate a more
space efficient result?

The evolution seems correct, but the rate of metamorphosis is
uneven across the different stages. But I like it already.
