hello
this is a video we have just finished editing from an event we held last summer here in Liverpool at a venue we run called the Kazimier. The event was a celebration of our previous nights and took the shape of a carnival. As can be seen in the second half of the video we built a large LED matrix as a central show piece for the headline band Dogshow. The matrix consisted of 125 x 1W led's, they were controlled using an Asrduino and 2 x MAX7219 multiplexing chips. the led's were sequenced in real time using ableton Live. by giving each light its own midi note we were able to very quickly and on the fly design intricate light patterns, save them and trigger from pattern to pattern like a huge musical instrument.
