Churros v3 — Loop
An arc of piped colour — amber at one tip, deep blue at the other — that curls open and closed, one end flattening into a star-shaped nozzle.
A fat C of gradient piping sits on a scrolling grid: yellow-orange at one tip, through dark red and teal, to a blue end that splays into a six-pointed star, like dough cut clean at the nozzle. The arc breathes — its angular span pulses wider and narrower with the clock — while the colours crawl along its length.
The span itself is animated: the walk's end angle rides a cosine, so the strand literally grows and retracts rather than bending a fixed length. Each stamp's rotation includes the step angle squared, accelerating the twist toward the tips so the far end coils fastest, and the star is simply one stamp of three crossed lines showing clean where the tube stops overlapping itself.
