I used to do interesting stuff like that when I was younger. I once created a junction box to allow Atari "digital" (non-proportional) joy sticks to work on an Apple ][ Computer. Fun.

Ed (who I work with) keeps telling me that a string on a motor is a better way to do it.

My ancestors didn’t crawl out of the oceans all those years ago to recreate the most fundamental experiment the human universe has ever seen with a light on a string man! :)

Also I dont want people at the pary to lose their limbs when they try to touch it :)

Will look really cool in the dark…

I presume the idea is that particles will fly around in opposite directions and smash together somewhere, releasing other particles. Maybe v2 can replace the red leds with 2-colour ones. ;) Interesting!

That's ambitiuous Ash!<br /> I like the idea - it looks and sounds like a great fun project! (But how much multiplexing are you going to have going on there?) Don't get too smashed at the party okay!!! (hahahahaha, man that's funny :-) </p> <p> P.S. To 'anonymous': you can't have a motor with a single LED because the collider sends 2 (two) protons in opposite directions around the ring until finally, wham! they are allowed to smash into each other. Two LEDs on motorized arms might be a bit tricky, mechanically. </p> Wow! That’s ambitiuous Ash!
