I was a little confused because you the circle of fifths and are moving in fourths. After rewatching I realized you said E "is the five to" A "is the 5 to" D. Seems like a confusing way to present it. Basically you are doing the circle of fifths in reverse, aka circle of fourths, right? Or am I looking at this wrong?
Moving clockwise (or to the right), the circle of fifths moves from C to G to D, etc. If you count the C as the I chord, G is the V chord, hence the circle of fifths. If you move anti-clockwise (to the left) you actually are moving in fourths-F is the fourth of C, etc. Circle of fifths modulation mostly involves what is called "back-cycling" or jumping way ahead (to the right) and moving back to the home key (to the left), so in that sense, the movement can practically called moving in fourths.
