Neon v6 — Sticks offset
Short luminous sticks pinwheel around a pulsing ring, their dim echo layers lagging a few degrees behind so every bar drags a fanned trail.
Thick capsule-ended bars pinwheel around a common centre, coloured around the spectrum, and each bright bar drags a fan of darker copies behind it, like a shutter caught mid-turn.
The degenerate dot-stamp regains length: the two endpoints of each stroke are mirror images through the spoke's origin, so every stamp is a real stick. The trail comes from the echo passes being offset in time — each successive halo layer reads the pulsing ring radius a few degrees later in its cycle — so the dim copies lag the bright layer instead of sitting under it.
