This are 2 of my attempts in moi.
If abstract is what you are looking for you might find a way.
But still it's a little tricky.
I'm not a very experienced MOI user.
I gave it a try to see what i could come up with.

I drew a flat spiral and drew a base shape for one high and low rickle( or how you like to call it :) )
I unwrapped the spiral, wich gives you a flat line
I copied the base shape 70times on this line and then used flow to flow it on the spiral.
Before i copied the base shape i added a point at its center.
So after i flowed it i could still run the scale array command to scale everything down a bit, big to small from the outside to the center.
It didn't exactly give me the result that i wanted.
In the center it got a little bit mixed up and had to fix it a bit.
Maybe it would be better to run scale array before flow.
But hey, maybe this will get you started. :)
