Unfortunately, the luster of the LED idea has faded due to a process flaw. By making the wax eggs hollow, the led lights are not able to diffuse the light to make them glow, instead, only partially lighting up the eggs. Red and orange LEDs are very directional, and is not producing a glow. Green and Blue are better, but not by much. Instead, I plan to scrap the LEDs from the eggs and let them be a polished, translucent white color.

I’ve thought of possible attempts at unique placement of the piece, but the best place seems to be in a typical pedestal gallery placement.

As part of the project, it was encouraged that we introduce a leave-behind element. With the Swedish culture of simple and minimal (and the whole "build it yourself" IKEA thing), it would be interesting to have a simple, buildable office toy as a leave behind. My interest in simple electronics adds value to this.

Leave behind would be a simple lamp made from perforated foam sheets or thick paper that can be made in a few minutes. The basis of this lamp would be from Hans-Agre Jakobsson, but smaller- 3.5"x3/4" and roughly 3" tall. A self-changing RGB led would be included, along with a battery and a switch that can be placed on one side of the piece.
