Your code is all over the place and doesn't make sense.

JavaScript variable declarations have function-scope. You can't
declare the variable 'query' inside drawVisualization() and then try
to use it outside the function. And you are trying to use 'data'
without even declaring it or assigning anything to it. You also seem
to trying to create two Motion Charts - I can't figure out why.

Lastly, you have to read the Visualization API documentation; look at
the docs for Query Language and the google.visualization.Query
reference. In your code you are trying to use a published spreadsheet
page in HTML format as the Query source - you don't do that. Use the
raw Spreadsheet data itself by pointing to the URL of the spreadsheet.
The Data Source Request example mentioned below will show you how.

What you are trying to do is quite simple. Rather than just giving you
the solution, you should be able to figure it out by:

Go to the Google Code Playground and look at
i) the HTML view of Visualization > Data Source Requests > Data Source
Requests - http://code.google.com/apis/ajax/playground/#data_source_request
ii) replace the IntensityMap instantiation with MotionChart (it's in
your sample but also in Visualization > Basic > Motion Charts -
http://code.google.com/apis/ajax/playground/#motion_chart)
