Saturn

Saturn is one of my favourite solar-system planets. It has a beautiful ring. I’ve been trying to come up with a way to display the ring, while regular clothing does not accommodate such a shape. But we all love spinning skirts. What if Saturn shows up when we spin? Since a spinning skirt will create an angle, why don’t I add an accelerometer to detect the angle and light up the “planets” and “satellites”?
