I just checked and I seem to have over 1663 patterns to try on a thing like that. I need to manage the light part better

Thats fun. I bet with the right spiral pattern in there and if you could get the lights to flash in sequence you could get some really interesting results.

Oooo, cool! I didn’t know you could get LEDs in that size that do a flicker pattern. Would you care to share your source?

Yup that is what I was thinking. Combining the filter pattern with that could be cool. Maybe a double layer screen with a slight gap for a more complicated shadow.

Except as rotating cylinders instead of a disk, and changing lights. There would be major differences as the related angles would not change so it would be more lava lamp. If the lights went up and the design went down it would be a problem for the easily hypnotised though.
Nice #necrogame though

I really kind of want to stick one of these in a cube:
But I currently lack the patience to build one.

This makes me want to just sit and stare at the picture! 
Led cubes like that are a heck of a soldering exercise. You’ll also learn about charlieplexing, it’s quite an undertaking.

That’s really neat! You could get some interesting effects depending on how you cut the inside paper.

My old lamps did/do that particularly vertically as the candle is a point light in that direction, bit it did not move much, But counter rotating designs would be neat.

Really cool. Had I had this to stare at in college, I probably wouldn’t have graduated.
