Consider any time-dependent path in two-dimensions. Such a path can be modelled by adding up the frequencies of an infinite number of circles. The radii of these circles is the Fourier transform. It's used a lot in analyzing electrical signals, as well as light interference patterns, responses of linear systems to external inputs, etc.
