To generate a gif just run python draw_circle.py
Basic visualization of different subdivisions of rhythm. Imagine a radial line spinning around in a circle, once every 2 beats. Every time a drum hits, a new line lying on top of that one appears. This ray's color determined by which drum hit (ta = green, pax=yellow or gin=red). This is what the first circle is.
You can imagine doing the same thing with a faster line that goes around once each beat, or twice each beat. This is what the second two circles are.
