 More of a tongue-in-cheek interpretation of the challenge, but it's the first to pop into my mind.

Produced image upside down and backwards on a laptop so that reflection would have proper orientation on drive. Placed black cloth on keyboard with drive on top of that. Powered drive to achieve spin. Began shooting.

This particular set up caused focal planes of drive and reflection to be some distance apart. Used f22 and cheated focus toward drive.
