Hello,
I've been thinking way too much lately and have thought of another idea.
This one is a bit more mechanical than electrical.
I was thinking of attaching a light to a pully system and have it travel down using gravity, behind some different colored plastic. Just a cool thing for our living room.
Heres a sketch:

My physics is pretty rusty, so I'm not too sure how feasible it would be.
I'm thinking that I can pull the system back up in the morning and have the weight system (As well as pully resistance) fashioned in such a way that 8 hours later the light will have travled down to the bottom.
So basically it takes 8 hours for the light to travel, or something like that. that way the colors change throughout the day.
I'm open to any suggestions!
Thanks again!
