Findings of "Time Fountains"

I don't know if this applies to anyone else or simply to my self but I found some interesting research on "Time fountains" and more specifically, the information regarding how to make one. I think this be helpful later on when I start to apply the topic of Persistence of vision to my project to relate it back to last semester work.

The question will be if it will be possible to manipulate my project enough to move in sequence with the strobe lights, as this guy did.
