I currently have one Fibonacci512 PixelBlaze available for sale, DM me if interested. With everything going on, this may be the last one I have available for quite some time.
Please note this one uses WS2812 LEDs, not SK9822. It's still gorgeous (if I do say so myself). 😁
Fully assembled, includes the brilliant #PixelBlaze and Sensor Expander by @wizard for sound-reactivity, live-coding patterns via web UI over wi-fi, etc.

Sneak peek at Pixelblaze Buddy Boards! These interface with an @wizard Pico and provide direct soldering for pebble strands, and support any strip via a connector or wires. Convenient USB-C breakout for power. A 4-pin pebble strand with backup data is wired directly to it, then a 3-pin tape strip with a connector is shown going to a different Buddy board.

Here’s a short masto-friendly vid that shows the Tentacle Buddies in action with a Pixelblaze Pico. You can see the wiring order in the animation, which is just a slowed KITT with rainbow instead of red.

Lately I’ve been working with #Pixelblaze Picos and pebble LEDs strands of various types, and I made some helper boards to make wiring them up easier! Here’s a video about it, explaining how to use them to create a continuous LED chain with tentacles that drop down. I think these would be great for #cosplay and making a skirt. I’ve been working on these in collaboration with @wizard so they’ll be coming soon to the Alpenglow website and prob the Electromage site too! https://youtu.be/ITolLfaTvGk?feature=shared

@jasoncoon ooh. That would be so cool!!!

Finished this art piece for my office!

The base for this piece is a cork board. I painted the frame, covered the cork in fabric, added a string of WS2812 LEDs controlled by a Pixelblaze V3 Standard LED controller, and then finished it up with some mirrors and flowers.

This art took 23 calendar days to finish, but only 7 of those are days where I actually made progress on this project. The other 16 days were focused on other events and projects in my life.

The materials cost:
$39 USD for Pixelblaze
$35 USD for the LEDs
$20 CAD for the fabric
$10 CAD for the mirrors
$ 6 CAD for the fake flowers
$15 CAD paint
$ 5 staples
+ cost of tools and miscellaneous supplies

If you order a Lux Lavalier Heart pendant now I can't promise it'll arrive by Valentine's Day, but I will upgrade it to priority shipping & try my best.

Super stoked to finally be able to share this! It’s an LED #crochet hat that I made for the maker gift exchange this year! This came out so freakin well that I’m making more and am developing a plug-and-play system/kit so that yarnies without electronics experience will be able to easily add LEDs to their projects. 🧵

Finally finished this project that had been backburnered for a while - a sign for our friends at Two Broads Ciderworks! In celebration of National Fuck with Pixelblazes Week, this is indeed powered by @wizard Pixelblaze.

It’s made from fiberboard with a cherry veneer, glitter acrylic, and addressable LEDs.

Went to a Halloween party last night, so I pulled out my LED plushies, and made a boat from a cardboard box. I was "Disco Jacques Cousteau"

Planting an LED garden.
I have a few 6x6x6 LED cubes in stock.

I've completed the laser-cut acrylic enclosure, based on L3D's original design. This version includes a place to mount a #PixelBlaze & Sensor board by @wizard inside. The Sensor board has an IMU & mic so it can respond to movement & sound. Here it is responding to Restraint by Tycho, with a brilliant pattern written by @benhencke.
I hope to have parts for more available early next week.

Hey hey, who’s headed to Maker Faire Bay Area next weekend, Oct 19 & 20? A whole bunch of us are and we’ve created a little Electronics Wonderland for all of your soldering kit, handy tool, make stuff with LEDs, wear LEDs, and automate your off-grid living space needs! There’s so much to tell you that I have to start a 🧵.

I like work better these days then I have in a long time 💖

Today I'm assembling these, which I'm sure quite a few of you would really love:

Fun fact, this project is a collaboration between three hardware creators I know ( @wizard @GeekMomProjects, @jasoncoon ) , a really rare example of collaboration that generated something far greater than each input alone, that has non-dramatically sustained itself for quite a while. Impressive. An honor to work on.

#leds #ledart

(1) Hung with the simultaneously understated and hysterical @wizard who may have finally convinced me to learn KiCad and saw his stunningly appointed (by the very talented @LaserMistress ) #pixelblaze installation
(2) Attended @alpenglow's informative talk on using 3D printing for manufacturing. She's a talented presenter who makes detailed discussion of tolerances remarkably interesting, and cleverly histogrammed the results using the 3D printed parts themselves as the data points

@gsuberland Maybe $0.15-$0.25

This is the final jacket for the "Light Wash Denim" installation at #teardown2024. Patterns generated by @wizard 's awesome #pixelblaze controller, and I used @jasoncoon 's very helpful pixel mapping program to extract the LED positions from a photo of the wiring. I'm getting super excited for Teardown now!

In a few weeks I'll be at #Teardown hosted by @crowdsupply, and I'll head straight from there to #Toorcamp for a solid 2 weeks of hardware hacking and socialization.

I will not be hosting a quiet room with lockpicking or anything like that at Teardown this year, but I *will* be running a table for @wizard showing off the Pixelblaze LED hardware, and I *will* be flooding the Toorcamp Night Market with my own lasercut briberies 😎

Who will I see?

@jasoncoon nope, gotta wait till Teardown!
