The Choprical Fish: a Human Powered Party Bike

Step 24 Integrate lighting.

A soul cycle is best experienced sunset or at night. Think about it. Throughout the ages, people have come together around fire and music, as night falls, to tell stories, dance, and connect with other humans. In our age of televisions and dense cities, we no longer use campfires as the source of light, but a soul cycle can have a similar effect. To neglect the importance of lighting would be to miss out on the mesmerizing campfire effect.

I like to use CCFL lamps, similar to the one we use in the Down Low Glow. CCFL lamps provide a very even glow when compared to LED's. They're less energy efficient but not unacceptably so. I glue them into the inside of the music cabinet, and try to create beautiful color fades that are accentuated by the honeycomb side panel material.
