Ended up needing a new sewing machine, but now that it's arrived, I've been able to finish sewing the Ouija messenger bag. The project has entered the hot-glue phase. Only a few LEDs left to go.

Video of the illumination so far with a dumb LED controller. The plan is to program it to display messages.

Pixel mapped my friend's tree last night using @themariday@mastodon.social 's awesome video-mapping tool and set it up with a #pixelblaze controller

@ferrix@mastodon.online it really was! It was early enough that not many students were around, just a vexed administrator trying to figure out how to deal with them all.

Finally got around to Pixel mapping my friend's Pixelblaze-controlled Christmas tree using @themariday@mastodon.social 's video pixel mapping tool (https://github.com/TheMariday/marimapper), and it was fantastic! I could never have mapped the 600 LEDs on this tree without it.
