So You Think You Have The Best Xmas Light Display?

I bet this person's neighbours must really get annoyed with this after awhile. Still looks pretty awesome though!

Enjoy folks and have some good holidays.

That must have taken forever to do! Pretty cool.

 

[Naughtygirlrlw]

It looks really cool but I would go crazy if I was their neighbor!

Ya tell me about it! Maybe every year they change the song or something i dunno, lol. How do you buy a setup that reacts to music like that is what i wanna know.

heh heh, I almost posted a link to this last week. I think it's amazing and you MUST watch with sound (first couple of times I didn't). I almost wonder if it's a photoshop though, it's just too perfect.

ok......it's hideous - no doubt about that. But it's also awesome
Thanks for the tip Wuv - I watched it without music the first time, and was *not* impressed.
It's fab though (I just thank my lucky stars that house is in our neighbourhood, as I'm certain the whole area lights up !)

Just a bit of trivia

The chap who did it, is Carson Williams from Mason Ohio, who used 88 Light-O-Rama channels to control his 16,000 christmas lights.

And the music is by the Trans-Siberian Orchestra - to which the light show was set - the song is called "Wizards In Winter". The sound we can hear on the video was added in afterwards for clarity - it wouldn't have recorded that well in the open. But apparently does the whole show set to 40amp service.

I loved the music, wouldn't mind the cd.lol.

 

[littleimp]

I think that is probably done on a disco light sequencer with some sort of relay set up to control the mains. With a good one of these you could have 20-30 different 'light per note' sequencers.

Doesn't happen to be 'Jean-Michel Jarres' house does it?

I had heard that the music was played over a radio station. Kinda like at the drive in movies.
