Poi Simulator Quick Guide:
Basic
Use the controls on the left to change the pattern.
Click and drag to change them (keeping the mouse
in the circles).
The concentric circles are motion descriptions. The tiny
circles are durations for each of these.
Click on the blue text, or the middle of the animation,
to apply.

Motion Controls
The outer ring of each control represents poi speed,
relative to the ground (-6 to 6).
The lines go blue when the poi speed is a whole number.
If you're having trouble making patterns, try sticking
to one or 3 blue lines.
The inner ring represents hand speed (-1, 0, or 1).
The shading represents direction, black for no movement.

The top two controls are descriptions of the initial motion.
The poi icons represent the starting position of each poi.
The bottom two controls represent the second part of
the motion.

Time Controls
There are 5 time controls. One for each motion description,
and one for phase. The phase control is at the top between
the controls; it is a pause after starting the left motion,
before starting the right motion. The other time
controls just define the length of time to use a given
motion description.

Sharing
Every time you click, the URL below updates. Please
use this to share your patterns!
