Vandalism, but make it flashy!
I used my electronics skills to bling up a part of London!

π§ How I made it π§
For the scanning lights, I modified the code from Adafruit's Larson Scanner Shades by Phillip Burgess to work with my setup:
https://learn.adafruit.com/larson-scanner-shades/arduino-code
I used an Adafruit Gemma ATTiny85 because I had it lying around, and a strip of WS2812 Neopixel-compatible LED strip.
USB Batteries auto-turn off if the current draw is too low, so I made it use about 14 LEDs at a time intead to make sure it used over 100mA. I could have used a LiPo battery or something inside, but I didn't have one to hand.
