This is the logo of an L.A-based record label called Stones Throw. The implied motion here are sun rays beaming from the circular logo. This implied motion adds a nice gradient of color as the sun rays fade out toward the edges of the poster. Also the spaces in between the rays provide an interesting contrast between light and dark. Although the implied motion is that of light rays beaming outward, the eye is drawn into the source of the light rays where the subject of the piece is located.
The implied motion of these dancers is their reactions to the music that the DJ is playing. The name of the compilation is called 'Phuturistc Dancin' and the cover art is just that. The designer wants his viewer to see the implied motion of these people and believe that the music within will make us do the same. It is an illustration of a dance party snapshot, where the photographer was able to capture a magical moment in time. If the illustrator were to press play again, I have a pretty good idea of the motion of these characters that the designer was implying.
