TIL that a very nice large addressable LED device I'd been given doesn't use NeoPixel order, but APA106 colour order. And also that, despite it being mentioned in MicroPython's Quick Start Guide for the RP2, the APA106 library isn't included in the standard firmware

(easily fixed: copy ports/esp32/modules/apa106.py to the Raspberry Pi Pico's filesystem)

Embroidarhytnm is a mashup between:

* The sound responsive drum ornament I did a while ago

* Embroidamotion — as seen at https://reshet.social/@zzzen/111942240337762246

Just like Embroidamotion, it incorporates embroidery by #UmRani from Bil'In, #Palestine

I ordered my Mini Fig Pi two days ago, and it arrived today! Of course, @ben_shockley and I are both in the KC area, so your results may vary. 😁
These are 1:1 scale with actual LEO Minifigures, so they're obviously tiny, but surprisingly so when holding one. 🤏 🔍

Been using @kinopio to think out parts of a large-scale #LED project's redesign and rebuild: https://kinopio.club/phase-lights-2023---firefly-2023-plan-ZoDKvt3Kq-SJT6ulRL6S4

For example: I want to run a long-ish power line from a solar generator, so that's the output of this module. But given the elements I've sourced to compare and prototype, I had to map this stuff out so I only think about it the once.

Full credit to @ItsMrJP for the idea. The front is white acrylic with a thin black layer that can be laser etched away. Behind that is a black acrylic grid, then a Fibonacci64 driven by an #ESP8266 using #FastLED. All mounted onto a laser cut acrylic back using M2 screws and standoffs.

Since the Fibonacci256 HDR and #LuxLavalier both use #PixelBlaze controllers, the exact same pattern code and tutorials work for both!
