Reader Submitted: DIY “Rings of Saturn” LED Pendant Light with Music Visualization Mode

This project involves animated lights, so is best viewed in video.

I made this LED pendant light from plywood, LED strips, and flexible LED channel. Since I designed this for my living room, the music syncing had to be incognito. With this in mind, I used warm white / cool white / amber LED strips, instead of RGB strips. In solid white mode, the rings give off various shades of white for a sophisticated modern look that hides the wild side when you switch the light to music visualizer mode.
