Just going to lentils now for food then Jeff and Tam are calling it a day

Rory has to program it.
Will have lasers doing a chase pattern, some addressable led rings and there's a few EL wire outputs on the same controller so he can do EL chases

I'm thinking I'll attach the last 5 or so masks tonight after dinner 😊

Here's us holding the rest of the small masks in place

The big ones (whole head) masks didn't really work

So thinking we can either wear some or hang them from other poles in a shade structure to help tie the whole thing together thematically.

Will prettify it etc

It has masks all the way around it pointing in all directions

Prioritised putting masks higher up at heights people can see

Need to come up with a way to decorate knee height and below

Maybe tubing or something

Anyone happen to own a low wattage smoke machine?

It'd be cool to drill big holes in this and pump smoke through it...

Still need to send an email to decom with a proper proposal - so far only communication we've had is verbally with me and a quick facebook convo (screencapped above)

If we get the grant then it'd be good to just buy one and build it in there.

$37 from dj city 500watts

if anyone sees any lower wattage units also going for cheaper then post a link

Rory can modify it to have a timer function by hooking a relay up to the remote input and interfacing it with a microcontroller.

I bought a couple of old metal jerry cans at a garage sale a little while ago. Fits the theme and also has utility!!

Could you put a picture of the jerrys in the concept reference thread?
