shading some simplicity

Yesterday I changed my usual boring night at home by going out with a friend. We walked some 3 or 4 kilometers around the downtown and riverside of Lisbon. There's something special about walking over the dark narrow streets of Alfama listening to all that Fado coming from even narrower and darker streets. I need a better camera.
After walking from Rossio to Bairro Alto to Alfama, back again to Bairro Alto, from there to Cais do Sodré, with a stop at a very nice looking McDonalds with some nice stone arches, and back home to Saldanha, after that big walk I came home and felt inspired to code another shader for my collection. I'll call it the Merry-Go-Round shader. I'll eventually upload a video/animation of the effect somewhere. Maybe I could make a screensaver with it and sell millions!
