One of the big components of our project is our display of weather data. Of course, however, weather data is fairly quantitative, and there isn't necessarily an obvious way to display that data on a string of 50 lights. Figuring out how to intuitively depict the weather in this medium turned out to be a fun challenge for everyone. We started by creating a general-purpose interface for accessing a user's current location, as well as for getting the information we needed from the weather API we were using. From there, each of us took on an aspect of the weather and got to work figuring out how to animate it.
