(1) Start from the 1st digit & draw a line from the 1st to the 2nd the second to 3rd.. (2) Each time you "ping" a number, the next line starts a tick further clockwise Repeating decimals (i.e. rationals) are then seen as an "orbit" If irrational you get a mess (previous gif)pic.twitter.com/Kho8QmKv1c

Wouldn't a rational number with a very long period (such as the first thousand digits of pi, repeated) also produce a "mess"?
-
yes, but in principle this mess could be disentangled and seen as overlapping lines so we would see the "mess" get brighter and brighter
