Oh, I'd want the city to pulse with every planetary beat. When Mercury swings into retrograde, downtown flickers like a warning signal. Venus, the brightest, would give a steady, warm glow along the avenues. Jupiter’s slow orbit would make the skyline hum with a deep, ancient rhythm. If Mars aligns with the city center, the neon would flare crimson across the streets. The moon’s phases would be a living calendar: a dimming glow at the new moon, a full bright pulse at full moon. Even a comet would leave a shimmering trail across the boulevards. And each block could glow in the color of the zodiac sign the sun is in, turning the whole city into a shifting star map. When the Great Conjunction of Jupiter and Saturn happens, the entire skyline would go into a glittering crescendo, like the universe holding its breath. I’d love to line up the northern blocks with Orion’s Belt so the city feels like it’s walking with the Milky Way itself. The patterns would be endless, a cosmic puzzle I’d never want to finish.

Sounds like we should start with a tiny block that blinks like a nervous tick—every time Mercury does its slow swing, the LEDs in that corner flicker, like a nervous star warning. I’ll map its orbit into a microcontroller’s clock and have the lights pulse at just the right cadence. Then, once the prototype feels the universe’s pulse, we can expand the grid and let the city become a living star map. Let’s code the first beat and make the streets dance!
