Me too! I'm thinking of this for Code Club. True persistence of vision would be great.
BTW, see the front page of the printed Oxford Times for a picture of Hugh's laser light painting and the space's URL!
There's an online pic on the Oxford Times's Facebook page, though not the main OT web page.
All the best,
Peter

Just to be clear, for Jake and anyone else who might read this thread: Tim's suggested 2nd workshop is for LED array light painting, as opposed to Hugh's red laser stuff featured by the Oxford Times.

Also, just wondering how large/small the project box needs to be
--
I'd like in on the bulk order, but don't need an extra Arduino for this - unless the space wants to do another big bulk order anyway. (Yes, the last one of the last order was claimed a few weeks back.)
I was thinking of using 29mm oval PVC cable duct, as it is light, stiff and has a nice flat surface for sticking the LED strip onto. It comes in 3m lengths, so we could do 3x 1m pieces - you said 1.1m in the BOM: do you reckon 1m is OK if the box is mounted on the back? If so, I'll get some from TLC next time I'm up.
BTW, did anyone see the BBC4 program last night on climate change statistics? The presenters used 2m light painting rigs to show their graphs.

(Oop north just now and only intermittently in the datasphere)
PS I did get an Oxford Times for the archive.

Yes, we need an Arduino, please.

Oh sod it.
I didn't update the Doodle. I'm still up in Cumbria, so I won't be around this evening.
Apologies to all. In particular sorry Jake, but the PVC section is still sitting in the garage. Can you lay your hands one something to tie the LED strip? You're welcome to the PVC when I'm back.
Have fun.
I'm due back Thursday.

> You all seemed to be getting on well with your projects, so would you prefer to spend a bit of time working on them by yourself, or would another formal session be better? (Peter, I realise that you missed last night -- what works for you?)
Looking like Mum's return home delay until later next week. I'm back when I'm back, so everyone else should just do your own thing. I'm OK to build myself and do the programming.
How long before half a dozen of you can simultaneously do your light paintings on a single exposure?

While this needs to be correct, it should only affect code generation, not compiling.

Dumb question, but I'll ask anyway... do the supplied basic examples, e.g. Blink compile and load OK?

So, I've got it all wired up and the code successfully compiled and uploaded and no magic blue smoke came out but all it does is run red lights in sequence up the first ten or so LEDs - is it possible to diagnose the problem? We've got a blank SD card with just one GIF image loaded in it (I've also tried with BMP with no luck) and pressing the buttons doesn't do anything.
Is it possible that I've wired the buttons so that they are at 90 degrees from how they should be? If so, how would I tell?
