This is so cool.  Thinking about using some slip rings and building displays with motion.

Adafruit sells slip rings too.  How would you provide the motion?  Mount the LEDs to a bar and spin it like a giant fan?  Like Adafruit's SpokePOV kit?

That's really cool, but I would be afraid to leave something like the bike with the spinning wheels running unattended... Some kid sticks his finger in it and you got a juicy lawsuit...

If you build that kind of motion, be sure to seal it in a box with a window.

The fist one was a long exposure picture - the image would not be visible to people just watching...
