[dxrrrsha] Circles through a point

Define 128 points on a plane, and 1 more special point, called X.  Select a subset of the 128 points, representing the set bits of a 128-bit key.  For each selected point P, draw a circle centered at P that passes through X.

A zoom up of the region surrounding X looks like a messy collection of arcs, but it artistically encodes all the information about the original key.

16 by 16 array of 256 points on the half integer lattice, and X at the origin.

Ellipses?
