Nerdy behind-the-scenes video of my Glimmer mermaid tail running FastLED animations using the timecode

Nerdy behind-the-scenes video of my Glimmer mermaid tail running FastLED animations using the timecode features, choreographed to an original song for performance. (that’s me singing, too!) Spot the Fire2012 and Color Twinkle animations by @Mark_Kriegsman as well as lots of other code snippets you all have shared (and even a couple I wrote myself! I’m getting better at this)

I performed to this piece at a 50th birthday last Saturday night and turned a bunch of 50 year old rich men in to giggling 7 year old girls for half an hour.

I can only shudder at the IP ratings required for this stuff.

Very cool and thank you for sharing the behind the scenes view with your fellow nerds here!

Also… Mad props for how far you’ve come from not that long ago – including writing the Adafruit project articles to encourage the next ‘generation’ too!

You’re sharing nerdy behind the scenes stuff in a safe and correct manor, and it’s appreciated. :smiley:

Awesome! A nice motivational kick in the pants for everyone else working on projects!
