Getting Brush & Zoom to work with Circles

I’m trying to understand Tristan Wietsma’s Brush & Zoom example and change it to draw circles rather than areas. I have created a version below with my attempt. The circles plot correct initially, but the brush / zoom have no effect on the main (Focus) plot.

I think its because I need to replace the area object with a circle object and then refer to these in the brushed and zoomed functions, but I can’t see how to create a circle object in a similar way to the area object.

Also, if anyone can explain how the brushed and zoomed functions work, that would be really helpful.
