    Encoded in the random light sequence are the universe mysteries – 🌌

  2. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Geoffrey Waldo says:

    How about some photoresistors that would change drop as they are activated by the LEDs? That would make each light like a cellular automaton! Responding to its environment…!

    Fran showing the true colors…a photophile! Need a tall plastic tube with a train of lights. That would make a chaotic iterative recursion modeler!!

    you did foresee a trend. The colored led ropes lights are in vogue. I use them as bias lights for my monitors, and a rope behind my headboard! SO DOPE! They are SUPER cheap now. And even have adhesive backings and marks showing where to cut so you can trim them to length, remote controlled. Its a hell of a product, not gonna lie. I LOVE them. lovely vibrant colors and very bright even with the cheap ones. Really liven up a space, and bias lights are great for eye strain. i keep mine on "teal" atm.

    I bought 2 ten foot ropes for 5 dollars a piece at Walmart. We are living in the FUTURE!!!!!!

    The title made me think it was going to go BANG then I realized it was the other kind of light pop.

    So glue sticks get stuck to silicone molds? That’s funky. I didn’t think anything stuck to silicone

    You might get some prop-making work out of this! Amazing build.

  8. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars GORF says:

    coating with wd 40 in the mold might help release it easier

    Calming Not for Me, but Waring Light, Could be a Better Option..Or a New Type of Back up Light..

    I've always liked cool lighting effects.

    Great fran I want one πŸ™‚

  12. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Gregory Boyer says:

    I wonder if it would have been any better had you used silicone instead of hot glue,, just a thought!

  13. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars ZarK Eh says:

    maybe hit it with a heat gun? in the mold and maybe after to shine it up…

    maybe put the leads and resistors ina mold too! the FranMold chann… erm, <3
