Process nearly complete (Mwah-ha-ha)

I've got the pipe fabricated, I've got the Piezo Vibration Sensor working, I've got the Arduino Mega working, now I just need to solder 100 LEDs and build the display, no big deal! I've been keeping process work of my ideation here: https://medialab.arts.ufl.edu/groups/art4642cfabrication/wiki/27e0b/Emily_Sneeden.html
I've changed my material from plexiglass to cardboard because I was inspired by: Scott Roberts
and I really like Joseph De Lappe's cardboard head.
Some imagery of the eyes I plan to inkjet print on to sticker paper, laser cut, and attach to the cardboard sculpture are:
Here's a video of how my test of the sensor to LED connection went!



Not sure how to attach the .pde so here's my code so far

const int knockSensor = A0; // the piezo is connected to analog pin 0
const int threshold = 100; // threshold value to decide when the detected sound is a knock or not


// these variables will change:
int sensorReading = 0; // variable to store the value read from the sensor pin

byte ledPin1 = 4;
byte ledPin2 = 5;
byte ledPin3 = 6;
byte ledPin4 = 7;



void setup(){
pinMode(ledPin1, OUTPUT);
pinMode(ledPin2, OUTPUT);
pinMode(ledPin3, OUTPUT);
pinMode(ledPin4, OUTPUT);
Serial.begin(9600);

}
void loop() {

sensorReading = analogRead(knockSensor);
if (sensorReading >= threshold) {
digitalWrite(ledPin1, HIGH);
digitalWrite(ledPin2, LOW);
digitalWrite(ledPin3, LOW);
digitalWrite(ledPin4, HIGH);
delay(10);
digitalWrite(ledPin1, HIGH);
digitalWrite(ledPin2, LOW);
digitalWrite(ledPin3, HIGH);
digitalWrite(ledPin4, LOW);
delay(10);
digitalWrite(ledPin1, LOW);
digitalWrite(ledPin2, HIGH);
digitalWrite(ledPin3, HIGH);
digitalWrite(ledPin4, LOW);
delay(10);
}
else{
digitalWrite(ledPin1, HIGH);
digitalWrite(ledPin2, LOW);
digitalWrite(ledPin3, LOW);
digitalWrite(ledPin4, HIGH);
delay(10);
digitalWrite(ledPin1, HIGH);
digitalWrite(ledPin2, LOW);
digitalWrite(ledPin3, HIGH);
digitalWrite(ledPin4, LOW);
delay(10);
digitalWrite(ledPin1, LOW);
digitalWrite(ledPin2, HIGH);
digitalWrite(ledPin3, HIGH);
digitalWrite(ledPin4, LOW);
delay(10);
digitalWrite(ledPin1, LOW);
digitalWrite(ledPin2, HIGH);
digitalWrite(ledPin3, LOW);
digitalWrite(ledPin4, HIGH);
delay(10);
}
