Still, the device controlling the LEDs will need to control each individual LED, otherwise it'd be merely shifting the colours along the strips, making it entirely obvious how it was implemented.
Controlling ought to be relatively straightforward, once an algorithm for the animation is created.
You see, I've spent the last year or two learning about programming microcontrollers, which are small, low-cost, low-power computers that are designed especially for what they call embedded systems, where a more fully-featured computer is way overkill.
Seeing as the strips are shipped rolled onto a reel, I'd think they're pretty darn flexible. =^.~=
