Glowdecahedron

I'm not sure why shiny, colorful things are so captivating. Perhaps I was a magpie in another life. This dodecahedron has a tri-color LED on each face, which allows it to glow and sparkle in various patterns. Three sets of four faces are driven by a TI PWM-ming constant current driver, which are controlled by at ATmega168 (programmed with the Arduino bootloader, for geek cred, of course).
