The capacitors in the astable 555 circuit give an asynchronous effect on the leds

Thanks to @digital_electronics on the circuit aesthetics

Thanks too to @wyoelk regarding to correct term to be used

You are correct that the leds are in an Asynchronous configuration. The 555 timer though is functioning in an Astable mode as a Monostable mode the 555 remains in a certain state until triggered externally. Here's an example. _ _ http://everycircuit.com/circuit/5286728351612928
