Bonus Tip: for extra fun in the Radio Waves effect, activate the "Reflection" checkbox. This will create a secondary 'cymatics' ripple effect when the radiating strokes hit the sides of the layer boundaries and bounce back. Of course, make sure the Lifespan is long enough for the waves to hit the sides.

I used to wonder how people do psychedelic animations, projected on the stage at a rave party. This makes me wanna start learning After Effects. Thank you so much for this amazing and useful video. Shalom.
