 '''FIRST ATTEMPT'''
 In the first attempt, I tried using the 16 channel Relay Module and using the Christmas light tutorial. I was able to upload a code to it, but it wasn't being transmitted to the LED light installation.

+It was a little frustrating, as it was the winter break and couldn't really move forward with this technique. I kept looking online for an easier way for me to be able to communicate Max and Arduino with the LED lights.
+A little while later, I found a very helpful tutorial, which allowed me to communicate arduino with my set of LEDs. [https://learn.adafruit.com/rgb-led-strips/arduino-code]. I followed this tutorial and to my surprise, it really worked.
+This is the arduino connection I used as instructed by the tutotial:

+'''CONNECTING THE CODE TO MAX'''
+In this point, I talked to my teacher Miga, and he gave me a little clue to try to use the old patch I had used in a previous exercise and try to connect it to the new code I had in the arduino software. I tried several ways, until I realized that the easiest way was exactly modifying the code I had already programed a while before.
