# Pulse v7 — Turbine grid

Twelve small turbines on a 3-by-4 lattice, each caught at its own moment and hue — rosettes, ribbon stars, folded scraps — no two alike.

Twelve miniature turbines dot a dark sheet in a 3-by-4 lattice, each in its own
hue and at its own moment: some are tight rosettes, some six-pointed ribbon
stars, some folded scraps mid-collapse.

The pinwheel is dropped onto a grid and the cell index is fed into every rhythm
— the hue mix, the drift phase, the waves that set blade count and stack depth
— so every cell runs the same machine out of step with its neighbours. Strokes
are cut to a quarter weight and the stack coarsened, keeping each figure small,
thin and legible.
