Ah, I got back home just a bit ago! 30~ minutes before midnight!
This is what I’ve thrown together using this pattern so far. The sparkle ball is missing its bottom half, making a bigger one soon. I’ve named the prototype sparkle ball Turtle Catcher.
That cup with all of the dials in it? Turtle Catcher Jr! Throw a pixelblaze(+sensor board extension) into the cup with a power bank, firestorm it up and send data from that pixelblaze to other pixelblazes on the local network to control lights! THE CUP OF POWER!!!
I rigged up the rotation speed of the map to run off the beats per minute detection thingy from that crazy music sequencing framework, which seems to be working pretty nicely! Spins when I hit a drum, and spins faster as I drum away faster!
Thank you for the help!
