@JSCybersec I like to point out that things don't have to be "high class" (whatever that means) to be beautiful, hold valuable truths, or to convey a meaningful message.
You can make something beautiful and still have fart jokes.

It's official, I'll be attending & setting up an installation at @crowdsupply Teardown 2024, June 21 - 23 in Portland, Oregon!
I'll have a collection of my LED pieces, some interactive, touch sensitive, audio reactive, #PixelBlaze powered, including the 320mm Fibonacci512, CycloHex, Kraken, Chamaeleon, Flower, Fibonacci128 Bracelet, Lux Lavalier, etc.
If I can figure out how to get it there, I'll bring the 500mm Fibonacci1024! 😅

@jasoncoon @ArchiteuthisFlux it's seriously impressive and I'm stoked I get to be their friend.
OK @ArchiteuthisFlux is just crushing it w the Jumperless breadboard. 🤩
Everything about it is beautiful: from the packaging printed w black & glittery pink BASE jumpers, the laser cut acrylic & foam case, to the actual product itself w RGB LEDs shining though the breadboard & backlit through the PCB (ingeniously, via a slim & tiny addtl PCB).
All open source code & hardware: https://github.com/Architeuthis-Flux/Jumperless
And they're on sale 15% off, get yours here: https://www.tindie.com/products/architeuthisflux/jumperless
I can't wait to dig in.
@nnubes256 awesome!
Every day with our friends and loved ones is a treasure; please don't forget this simple fact.
Remember that you are someone's treasure. And your own treasure.
Be good to yourself and each other; it's a lot out there right now.

@cyb3rkitties @pancakescon thanks for coming!!
I've redesigned my 86mm Fibonacci128 to use SK9822-EC20 HDR addressable RGB LEDs! I have a small batch of four available, if anyone's interested.
These can be driven with a #PixelBlaze, but I don't have a fully-assembled option for that yet. Hopefully soon.
I've updated my @tindie store listing, but can't change the title without breaking the (longer SEO) product link: https://www.tindie.com/products/19486
Video of a completed LED matrix pendant. Even though the matrix is shorter than the display surface, diffusion through the translucent cover spreads out the light over most of the front pendant face, for a nice effect.
@freeschool sure; we will work something out
@freeschool this week has been booked solid but I'll see about something this weekend.
@freeschool I'm not sure I understand what you are asking for.
@freeschool I send these out whenever the feeling strikes me; I don't schedule these because I want them to be more authentic.
