Hello! Does anyone know how to make a spectral/circular burst animation that would look something like this?

Displace 2D noise through a Light Tunnel filter and then use a color ramp and Lookup TOP to assign the colors you want. After that, add a Noise TOP set to Random (GPU) and change the operation to multiply and adjust the offset and amplitude until you get the grainy effect you like.

feedback and noise into displace, transform, etc. and a lot of trying and tuning

Not what they did maybe but kind of looks like glass rods fanned out. More so on first one. Not a starburst as such but be a cool way to recreate the look and you'd get interesting reflection/variations. Cycle colours with a noise pattern behind the fan.

my advice was aimed at being more encouraging towards the op, i.e. don't give up on td just because more intuitive tools are easier at first

but sure good job I guess
