I'll be there definitely Saturday and tentative Sunday.
No presentation from me but hoping to have some leaping arches to show (as long as I can get them to work by then.)

I could make an interactive display. I Can bring a RGB dumb strip, a dc controller and hook it up to LORs input pup. It was a big hit last year with all ages.

I recently did a display using only 3d projection mapping. Maybe this may be of some interest?

Hello,

I will be there Sat and Sunday

Would be interested in hearing about Falcon, Raspberry PI (what is supported now).

Hi Ben,
You may wish to re-post the link to your recording (ie from LSP) , so that those who have not seen it may do so before the Mini. Also any other(s), that should be looked at prior. Personally , I got lost when the new hardware was announced and am not sure whether the player runs on it , is still in BETA or what someone now should procure (as opposed to say in Jan this year).
