Gotta make one with a bunch of NE2's.......the trick is to multiplex it such that both electrodes glow.
Not challenging enough to do it with a dot-matrix (aka pinball machine) panel.

I did something similar last year for a clock: The "hands" are actually strings of NE-2 bulbs (36 in all), for a total of 306 bulbs.
It's rather bright when everything lights-up for the lamp-test.

Nice idea! At the start of the making of video you catch a glimpse of a flowchart of the system, looks like its a raspberry pi based system with a microsoft kinetic to pick up the dancing. Well executed system! Thanks for posting!

Yup - noticed the single-frame reference to the RPi - it seems that is used for the LED display - the Kinetic is also mentioned there.

Just thought it was a really fun installation...

That's a Primesense Kinect. Mickeysoft just resells them.
