IMHO, it's understandable seeing at the center.
In short, rotation + warp repeat y flip y acts as a kaleidoscope, as long as you
rotate 180 degrees (ncount_max * fA) or a multiple of it.

To show, what I mean, I add an image with code spippets included.
Distance from origin is needed to get rid of the kaleidoscope effect...
