HapHazard - a Playful Random Light System

it started with the thought of how to create a simple unpredictable electronic device.
its so simple its embarrassing
but
once you start playing around with it, you just cant stop
trust me
 

you will need
1.A bunch of LED's - there is no right amount - it works with 1, starts to look cool around 15 and just gets cooler as you add more. here i used 150 of the cheapest LED's i could find.

2. A 3v battery - one is enough but once i had all these LED's i felt like adding an extra 2nd battery.

3. A transparent sphere - i used those u can get in ant hobby store that are made of two parts, the come in many sizes and are quite cheap and handy.

well, its not a must but it does have better results (and its the only way to make it seem just a bit more sophisticated)

take all the LED's and bend open their 'legs' just a bit.

just like a good stirred cake you put everything together

Put the LED's in the sphere
Add the 3v battery (or two)

and there you have it !

now all you need to do is play around with the sphere, every now and then the LED's will entangle with each other and the battery in a way which will light up random LED's from the bunch.

its magical !

the next logical thing to do was to kick the ball around...

just glue it or something before you really get crazy with the kicking...
