Love your artistry! Yes most 'moving head' fixtures use ratio belt drives to run the pan and tilt functions. These work well to achieve smooth sweeping motions and very accurate XYZ positioning, however 'scanning' type fixtures usually mount a mirror directly onto the pan/tilt stepper motors. This gives fast movement of light using the mirror as opposed to a moving head fixture...ah now i feel all warm and fuzzy, i can tackle Tuesday!
