POV Fan Display with two LED strips (2m diameter) — Code Request

Hi all,

Does anybody know of some good code for a persistence of vision (POV) display with LED strips?

I'm using two 1m long LPD8806 RGB LED strips from Adafruit, mounting them on thin metal arms, and spinning them with a stepper motor. 2m diameter. I hope to use this as a screen.

All the POV code I've found thus far controls <10 single LEDs in a tiny rig.
Could anybody point me towards something I could use with strips?

My Arduino capabilities are intermediate.
I also own a PixelPusher LED strip driver, though I don't have much practice with it.
