This is in answer to a question on the mailing list asking how to achieve this kind of effect, see image attached.
I've made an quick test but I recommend for doing the real shot to have two sets of volumes because in the image we see two distinct level of density. Or one could make sure there is a nice contrasted level of density.
Also you could have a ramp that controls the variation based on the radius. This way you could decide where a ring becomes very dense.
I key to keep details even when the whole spiral has spun quite a lot is to add those small vorticle spin themselfves also deformed by the main spiral.
Let me know if you need more info/documentation in the hip file.

The reason why the asset was not included was because it was for sale on Orbolt but oh well, I decided to give it. I think I sold only one in two years.
I usually make one hda per otl to better manage the versioning but since these tools are all meant to be used together it's all in the same otl.
