Mechanical Light Experiement #1
Mechanical Light you say? Yes!
In short, I am chasing interesting (live) visual effects using mechanical methods. There are so many and they take NO CPU. Here’s the “classic” example of a mechanical light effect:
Hot glue a small mirror to a medium or larger speaker and bounce a laser bean off of the mirror. When the speaker is playing (music) the movement and reflection of the laser (the pattern) will reflect the sound
Simple huh?
