Check out this bendable, foldable lamp from Decktok. The four movable sections are filled with addressable RGBW lights and can be twisted, folded, or bent into any number of configurations. This is a really cool design!

The lamp ships with an onboard button for color changes, and can be controlled with the Tuya app right out of the box. The app features a number of nice animations, but not a lot of customization options. This guide will explain how to take it to the next level using an Adafruit Sparkle Motion controller. This adds WiFi connectivity and sound reaction using the Sparkle Motion's onboard microphone and the free, open-source WLED control app.

WLED allows you to create endless animations and color palettes, save presets and playlists for your lights, and comes with a number of customizable sound-reactive modes so your lamp can react to the music or ambient sounds in your environment. 

This is a very easy project with just a little soldering and no coding. You get amazing control of your lights with just a few minutes' work. Plus, WLED is great at syncing up with other WLED controllers on the same WiFi network -- so you can make your top hat or Christmas tree lights dance in sync with your lamp in just a few clicks.
