Concept
Multiple LEDs with different colors and positions produce colored shadows. With red green and blue LEDs this results in a nice visual effect. For best effects use bright "Superflux" LEDs with a wide beam angle. The pixel drift was first built in workshops during the MFRU festival 2016 in Maribor.

Parts
- Superflux LEDs 5mm] red, green, blue
- Resistors for LED
- Battery & connector
Resistor values
Depending on supply voltage, e.g. with 9V:
- 330 Ohm for red LED -> 22.7 mA current through the LED
- 270 Ohm for green LED -> 22.7 mA current through the LED
- 270 Ohm for blue LED -> 22.9 mA current through the LED
