Is there a name for this effect and what would be the best way to achieve it in Photoshop or Illustrator in terms of filling a different vector shape with a similar distribution of rainbow circles?
Another example:
I did something like this long ago, but it was painstakingly slow by hand and I'm sure there's a better way.
Answer
To some degree this can be accomplished via scripting and Illustrator. Check THIS THREAD at Adobe.com. NOTE; it seems the link in the thread to version 1.2 of the script is broken. However the link to version 1.1 earlier in the thread still seems to work.
User Jongware has written a script for Illustrator which fills shapes with various sized circles. Adding the gradients afterward is a simple matter.
This may save a bit of time over a hand placed method.
