Philip Glass - Sesame Street - Geometry of Circles
Publisher, Sesame Street, Video, YouTube
“Geometry of Circles” is a series of unnumbered animation pieces created for Sesame Street in 1979. The shorts consist of the movement of six circles (each with a different color of the rainbow) that are formed by and split up into various geometric patterns. source
Students could be asked to identify the parts of a circle that appear. The video could be used as the basis for students to create similar designs.
