My mini 4 elements ! (well, with only fire and water…)

2 strips of 64 LED WS2812b (144LED/m type).
the strips are on the wood parts, so the LEDS strips are facing each others, letting the light of the 2 strips mixing in the acrylic. One use the default code of fire with palettes, the other the same code with slightly differents settings to make 2 totally different flames.
the wood of the bar is teak (5mm thickness flooring material) sandwitching 2 plates of milky acrylic. the stand is ipe wood (hard wood for decking, very tough and heavy).
A long press on the capacitive button will fade out the light and increase the COOLING value up to extinction.
the 2 IR sensors on the sides set the sound loudness (left) and brightness (right).
No mechanically moving part (except the SD card lock and release port of the mp3 player.)

As always, thanks for the amazing library !

Really elegant design @Benjamin_Davoult1 . The use of the two types of sensors is great! Looks like the light from the two strips blending together works nicely.

I could see Air being something like slowly morphing noise, like clouds or steam, but what for earth? Maybe rippling or wavy greens like tree leaves or grass in the wind?

Beautiful build!

Very cool design. Glad to see more people thinking about the whole design package, beyond just the LEDs :slight_smile:
