Hook up your rings to the FLORA main board with alligator clips and load up the NeoPixel test code to ensure they're working properly before proceeding.
Below is the animation code we used for the headphones, which is just a very minor modification to the standard strandtest sketch, altered to wipe the pixels to various colors. Copy and paste this code into the Adafruit Arduino IDE:

// NEO_KHZ400 400 KHz bitstream (e.g. FLORA pixels)
// NEO_KHZ800 800 KHz bitstream (e.g. High Density LED strip)
