# Photonenkollektiv
* Many of the ideas and concepts in gled are inspired by the work of [Photonenkollektiv](https://photonenkollektiv.de/).
* We created multiple different kind of custom lamps based on WS281X LED strips.
* We use gled since its first version in 2019 to create animations for our installations.
