While setting up decorations for a festive gathering of sorts, a group of my dear friends began discussing interactive art.
Before i left that night, a fellow techy, Frank M. and i had the task of creating an interactive piece of art for our own amusement.
Our goal was to finish it for a Summer Solstice event, but my goal was to finish it by February.
Frank and i had 1 meeting, and by the end of that 1.5 hour session, the basic idea was figured out.
Luckily a fellow group of Tinker-ers, Thinker-ers, and super scientists had already completed a similar project.
This group of Evil Mad Scientists saved me about 3 or 4 weeks of work... you should see some of the stuff these guys have done:

In short? I made a pine box... put some wires in it... put a few hundred lights in it... lots of burned LM323s... and bada-bang!
It's done.
all the sparkly lights... so... mesmerizing... must... see... sparkly lights...
