RadiaLumia is a Five-Storey Tall ‘Spiky Dandelion Puff’ at That Thing in the Desert | #podcast #burningman #ArtTuesday
Kudos to KQED for their podcast and feature of the RadiaLumia project by Foldhaus arts collective – currently on view on the playa for Burning Man. Looking forward to eventually seeing video of this giant LED flower in action – once people start returning to ‘civilization’ and uploading video that is.

Oh that’s right: you don’t have to imagine. You can see it right there. But those panels that look like flowers move. You can see one here:
Stop breadboarding and soldering – start making immediately! Adafruit’s Circuit Playground is jam-packed with LEDs, sensors, buttons, alligator clip pads and more. Build projects with Circuit Playground in a few minutes with the drag-and-drop MakeCode programming site, learn computer science using the CS Discoveries class on code.org, jump into CircuitPython to learn Python and hardware together, or even use Arduino IDE. Circuit Playground Express is the newest and best Circuit Playground board, with support for MakeCode, CircuitPython, and Arduino. It has a powerful processor, 10 NeoPixels, mini speaker, InfraRed receive and transmit, two buttons, a switch, 14 alligator clip pads, and lots of sensors: capacitive touch, IR proximity, temperature, light, motion and sound. A whole wide world of electronics and coding is waiting for you, and it fits in the palm of your hand.
