gollark: Take each pixel of the input and its X/Y coordinates, divide the circle up into an equal amount of "pixels" using polar coordinates, and map them on.
gollark: You could probably do it (with "image" meaning some pixel-y thing on a computer and not some mathematical variant), but it would look stupid.

gollark: That also doesn't sound right.
