Tutorial: LED Water Drip Illusion Dress with NeoPixels and Arduino
Check my latest tutorial on the Adafruit Learning System. I built a dress using NeoPixel LEDs and Arduino code by Phil Burgess: the amazing Oozemaster 3000 code.

About Erin
Erin St Blaine is a light artist based in Northern California. She creates sculptures, costumes and artwork with programmable LED lights, often including interactivity and data visualization to bring her creations to life.
Erin’s innovative creations explore the way LED lights and 3d printed objects interact with the human body in motion: onstage through dance and flow arts, connecting with audiences at events through interactive character costumes, or underwater with Glimmer, the world’s first fully submersible and swimmable LED mermaid tail. Her art installations bring the natural world together with the latest microcontroller technology, to make glowing rivers, animated blinking tree faces, vertical gardens that can predict the weather, and walls of crystal that react to the viewer.
Her mission is to inspire more young makers, especially girls who are under-represented in the STEM world, to use art and technology to make their own dreams come true.
