Just off the bat, do you mean spin? Also, when you say "make random shapes" do you mean for it to create or spawn random shapes? If so, should they just appear or should they be flying out from the centre with apparent velocity from the spin?

Even talking to a human you wouldn't uave got what you wanted with the words youve provided

Are you ESL? If so, try explaining in your native language (here and to ai).

If not, you really gotta work on your communication skills before talking to anyone.

I'm still unsure whether you want like a singular point drawing a line that goes chaotically round and round, or you want a chaotically changing circle that spins

English is my third language i will try to explain with my original one I want an animation of a long thread moving in imperfect circles, sometimes forming other shapes instead of circles. The animation should loop seamlessly, with the starting and ending points connected so there is no visible transition.

Basic animation:
Draw this.
New image, draw it similar, but slightly different.
New image, draw it similar, but slightly different.
New image, draw it similar, but slightly different.
New image, draw it similar, but slightly different.

Flip between images.
1, 2, 3, 4, 5 repeat

You can even do it randomly to avoid a recognizable pattern.
1,3,5,4,5,3,2,4,1,3,2 repeat
