Piece based on paddle wheel image by Dan Gusset.
"I have used an image to audio converter to create eight audio samples for 45 degree rotations of the image of the Feathering Paddle Wheel. These have been manipulated these with various effects, stretching and layering to creating a looping audio piece. When viewed as a spectrogram it shows the rotation of the wheel."
