01 / The project

LEDS GO 8 is a collectible electronic artwork and platform for live computational patterns. Each unit contains a unique ID, or seed, that shapes how its algorithms behave over time. Across the edition, every LEDS GO 8 performs the same authored system differently. Activated by a shake, the object refreshes its state and selects one of eight built-in algorithms, generating a pattern unique only to that unit.

Checker Pulse

Orbiting Rings

Woven Field

Horizon Bands

Constellation Lattice

Eight visual
systems.

Eight algorithms run live on the object. Each is calculated locally across the 64-pixel matrix rather than played back from a recording. The edition’s seed gives the systems their colour bias and character; motion and a shake refresh the state, so the same system never resolves in quite the same way twice.

01 The connection sends only an INFO request. It cannot alter algorithms, colors, or firmware.

02 Powers of two are white; other odd editions are black, and other even editions are transparent.
