Introduction

In this tutorial we learn how to install spectrographic on Fedora 34.

What is spectrographic

Turn any image into a sound whose spectrogram looks like the image! Most sounds are intricate combinations of many acoustic waves, each having different frequencies and intensities. A spectrogram is a way to represent sound by plotting time on the horizontal axis and the frequency spectrum on the vertical axis. Sort of like sheet music on steroids. What this tool does is, taking an image and simply interpreting it as a spectrogram. Therefore, by generating the corresponding sound, we have embedded our image in a spectrogram.
