hello

took this problem from a uk tv program.

4 dancers are initially at the 4 corners of a square, edge length 4 meters. every dancer moves towards the person on their left.

i want to know the equations of the spiral. the arc length of each path should be 4m.  also an animation of the 4 spirals would be great.

under the heading "more spirals" the closest one is r(t)=1/t (decreasing modulus)
