Jar of Fireflies: LEDs Personified

 

I wanted to create something that reminded me of a living thing from nature. So I thought about fireflies, which I have only seen in movies. So I imagined what it would look like if I caught some in a jar. That is what I made. 

This jar of fireflies is made with an led strip, Gemma, battery, wire, paper and a jar. It turns on as the jar lid closes. Code available on Github
