To select panels in gradiating order.. from zero to to solid.. pixelated fade if that makes sense

I have been trying to find a script of tutorial to cull the panels on a surface with a incremental/ Gradiating effect.
Been stuck on this for 3 days… any help would be wonderful!

Thanks Dani!
That works perfectly, In my case, it’s collection of panels
As you can see in the image… i want the gradiation to start in relation with the red circle.
The current selection was done manually.

Thanks in advance

Also, how to select the culled items?

Instead of grouping the curve parameters of the closest points on the curve, use the distance of the points to the ellipse. Replace Curve Closest Point by Pull Point.
