Circles that spin to draw things

## Usage

1. Clone the repository

`git clone https://github.com/pynathanthomas/fourier_circles.git`

2. Install dependencies

`pip install -r ~/fourier_circles/requirements.txt`

3. Find or create an image that has clear contours

4. Run `contour_from_image.py`, replacing the appropriate variables.
