Soothing Mandala-like Animation

I am not sure how soothing are these, but I do that find them visually intriguing:

SeedRandom[1587];
ResourceFunction["RandomMandala"]["Radius" -> {10, 11, 9}, 
 "RotationalSymmetryOrder" -> Reverse[11*2^Range[3]], 
 "ConnectingFunction" -> FilledCurve@*BezierCurve, 
 ColorFunction -> "DarkRainbow", FaceForm -> {Opacity[0.3]}, 
 EdgeForm -> {Yellow, Opacity[0.6]}, ImageSize -> 1000]

enter image description here

SeedRandom[2344];
ResourceFunction["RandomMandala"]["Radius" -> {8, 10, 6}, 
 "RotationalSymmetryOrder" -> Reverse[5*2^Range[3]], 
 "ConnectingFunction" -> FilledCurve@*BezierCurve, 
 ColorFunction -> "Rainbow", FaceForm -> {Opacity[0.3]}, 
 EdgeForm -> {Yellow, Opacity[0.6]}, ImageSize -> 1000]

Here are animations based on the random mandalas above:

Wow! This is great material. You can find many of these crazy-looking animations at the Twitter account "Tweet-a-Program": https://twitter.com/wolframtap. Mrs. Silvia Torosyan is a frequent contributor; some of her codes are published thereof. :-)

If you can generate an animation that makes people dizzy, you could probably make money selling it to people who need to retrain their vestibulo-ocular reflex, the brain circuitry that coordinates inputs from the various senses.

The second one is very neat, can't figure out the 'rule' ! very intricate.

This is it:

Graphics@
  Table[{Thick, Dotted, Hue[r/360, 1, 1, .4], 
    Line[{{Cos[31 r Degree], Sin[31 r Degree]},
             {Cos[39 r Degree], Sin[ 39 r Degree]}}]}, 
  {r, 0, 360, 1}]

Also looks great in black and white:

I only knew of these kinds of visualizations:

Graphics[Line[Tuples[N@CirclePoints[17], 2]]]

However yours are much more intricate, very nicely done!
