For animation, you need a line draw. The logo contains filled areas, you have first to decide what to do with them. Further, it contains highly detailed stuff that would be difficult to draw. Still further, the logo contains gaps, which obviously cannot be animated by drawing a continuous line. So, the very first thing would be to decide how you would like to change/simplify the logo.

For the picture conversion personally I would prefer an interactive tool, I’d take ImageJ / FIJI. Here is what came out (`convert to grayscale |> threshold |> outline`), but I do not think that is what you want to have.

Have you actually watched the highly instructive video [linked](https://discourse.julialang.org/t/fourier-draws-the-julia-logo/47309/12) in the other topic?
