JP,

Thanks for keeping us non social media users updated.

Maybe next year.

Thanks again,
Ed

Session Update: Are you thinking about adding pixels to your display or know just enough to get in trouble?  Attend Light Up Ohio and get a good handle on pixels with two more outstanding sessions planned.
 
Pixels 101 - A basic primer for anyone wanting to get involved into pixels but not sure where to start.   This session will start by giving a general overview of what pixels are, the different types, the hardware required to use them, along with the different sequencer options.   

Pixels 201 - A slightly more advanced discussion of pixels and design considerations - Architectures of different types of systems will be discussed, along with the protocols.    Performance differences of different types of pixels will be considered, along with costs of each types of system.  Topics like power injection, and 5v vs 12v will be considered.

Are we having the White Elephant Gift Exchange?
Yes we are!
If you would like to participate, please bring a "wrapped" Christmas related item with you to the event. It can be something from your own collection or you can purchase something. If you choose to purchase something, you can spend as much as you like, but the general rule-of-thumb is to keep it under $20.
It's a lot of fun and you never know what you might get!!
