Very nicely done! What was the cover of top of the table?

[Reply #2 on:]

yea looks pretty good considering the led density and the final result

course I know a little bit of that is the camera, but it seems very even so yea seconded on the "what surface material" question

This would be stunning using thr RGB LED's and a subtle flashing program

Novel use of a cough for the grand finale.

Yea, the noise and cough was my roommate coming in.

As for the light diffusion layers it goes like this:

aluminum foil
tissue strips covering the LEDS (very thin single ply)
Red cellophane
rice paper (the key ingredient)
frosted glass top.

The rice paper is a bit thick. In retrospect, I think using Vellum trace paper would have been a better choice.
