And a GIF. While the rotor rotates, different switches are connected to current, and the coils - to - pads relationship is set up such that the current will cause the motor to rotate. Pardon my abbreviated explanation.

Brushes make motors very simple. You just pump voltage (in time, current) through the rotor, and things happen. However, there are resistive losses at the brushes, as well as friction losses.
