Uneven subdivision of arc

I've been working on a definition for awhile now and until now I've kind of been working around what I want to do.

I have an arc that I would like to divide unevenly based on the length (or distance between the resulting points). Basically I would like to have the first point at 0 then the next point at a distance x then another point at 1.2x then 1.3x then 1.4x etc. I am just using intervals of 0.1 here as an example but I would actually like to be able to change this parameter and see the varying results.

Previously I have used the Graph Mapper to ReMap a series however I'm finding that I do not have enough control with this method.

Suggestions?

Maybe this is what you're already doing?

I've recently changed my thinking that rather than the length of the resulting arc, it would be more valuable for me to control the amount of degrees rotated. So I think another way to do this might be to take the radius and rotate it a range of varying degrees, but I'm still having trouble getting the desired results. I've attached my starting point, which is the radius rotated a series of times. However as you can see each radius is rotated 3 degrees and I would each rotation to be slightly less than the one before it. For example 5 degrees then 4 degrees then 3 degrees then 2, 1 etc... all within the domain of the 30 degree arc. Lastly I really want to avoid the graph mapper for any Re-Mapping purposes. I hope this is clearer than before. I feel like it shouldn't be this difficult but for some reason I'm missing something. Thanks for any help!
