How hard could it be to make a 10x10x10 Xmas light 3D array and have it display a bouncing ball? Wouldn't these be simple enough to be cheap enough to be a runaway fad?

An appropriate event for the bouncing ball display. http://www.tcaw.org/

       10 x 10 x 10 =1000 lights. Doable but maybe not simple enough to be cheap.

       May be a 5*4*4 = 80 bulbs and Anti-alias the bal by slowly fading it from one bulb to another

       Easier to have a real ball with an LED in the middle and a motorised arm cranking the wires up and down....

       What holiday is celebrated with images of bouncing balls?

       New Years?   

       Sounds like reason enough to invent a holiday. I proudly give you 'National Superball Day.'

       Metal framed glass ball with Led in middle. Hung by rubber band at two ends of a plastic frame cage with 8 strong electromagnets of which one will randomly switch on. :-)
