You may find a solution from my example demonstrating a simple geometric controller [here](https://forum.dynamobim.com/t/move-collection-of-points-by-a-distance-cosine/5085/6)

Alternatively, you can solve this problem mathematically, using an exponent starting from 1, i.e 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64 etc. Total the sequence, then divide 1 by the result to create a multiplier. Multiply the sequence using this number, then create points using `Curve.PointAtParameter`

Here’s an example graph taking the ‘mathematical’ approach (using the geometric controller is simpler…):
