Wow! That small idea worked out way more flashy than expected

What started off as trash in the street, then became disused trash in a friend's garden after they ran out of space for it, has become a shiny new 2D LED Matrix wall in Birkenhack after a good cleanup in the sink. There are five ingredients to this LED Matrix wall:
1. Plastic Bottles
2. Standard British Milk Crates
3. Tinfoil
4. LEDs
5. Esp32 running #WLED software
@WHY2025 So we have about a million of these LEDs at @xHain_hackspace and I'm thinking of using an HT16K33 board I still have flying around to control a 16x8 LED matrix.
Wondering how I should arrange them, vertically or horizontally - anyone any opinions? I want to make some digits for a clock or text ticker.

Alright, here's the test of the latest LED wearable I'm currently working on.
I still need to get the controller into a wearable box (or just re-use the one from my LED skirt), but this part is working and was a hell of a lot easier than the LED strips for the skirt. I'm thinking also of making an LED "belt" to go with it, just to have more LEDs XD

Finally!!!! Finally got this to a wearable state! LED skirt running WLED on an esp32 based feather powered via a usb battery pack. The 4 RGB LED strips are velcroed to be skirt for easy removal for laundry and stuff.
Will try to post videos later. This has the audio reactive WLED usermod and microphone, it looks awesome!

Orb-ification of LED cube is underway. The four matrices in the body are now covered with their 3D printed shells, and just the lid matrices are left to complete. My son said it looks like the Death Star, which made me happy, but also has me on the alert for tiny, low flying rebel spacecraft.
