Today I got around to hooking up the awesome OnLogic K800. , the computer that makes Fluffy shine. This computer runs the LED pixel mapping code that translates video files into the signals needed to drive the `14,400 LEDS on Fluffy’s sides. I retrieved the computer when fluffy finally made it back to Vermont a few weeks back, but decided to get it running today in prep for Duane III’s visit. Duane III is making a short ‘making of’ video about  fluffy.. and I wanted to show him how the insides of the lighting worked..  It is still covered with a fine fit. of Playa dust..   Brought back many memories.. some of them good !

 

Software isn’t visible so folks dont necessarily relate to it as much as the more physical parts of the bus.. but it’s still an important piece.

I’m looking forward to tuning this up for next year !

nite all, nite sam
