Update #9: We had a good run

Posted on November 19, 2010

We fought the good fight and gave it the old college try, but did not make it to the goal. My sequencer work will go on.
I would like to thank each of you for your support.
This has been a good experience, and I encourage anyone who has an idea that needs funding to try out Kickstarter. Big thanks to the Kickstarter team.
Let's go out on a high note.

      Marshall, really sad to see this project not meet the goal. I've loved your updates, songs, and videos. This song is no exception... love it. Best of luck with your future work.

Update #7: Lightshow Experiment

Posted on November 17, 2010

Trying experiments with the additional synchronized lightbox circuit on the sequencer for a light show.
Hopefully this is not epilepsy inducing for anyone. There is a sort of strobe effect from the back light of the main lightbox, and then normal xmas lights were strung up crossing one another. Further arrangements and expansions can be made too.

Update #6: 3 Days to go and we have the support of the Furbys!

Posted on November 16, 2010

There are 3 days left to go, and after exhaustive talks with the Furbys in my home they have agreed to pledge their full support, though it is just emotional support. Then they posed for a photo, and we made this video.

Update #5: Countdown to Friday 11/19 - 4 days to go

Posted on November 15, 2010

This Friday 11/19 is the deadline for this project. I am still spreading the word about the project and the Flash version of the sequencer setup for people to try.
Here is a short screen capture demo of the Flash version in action.
Give it a try and experiment with it, won't you.
