[Noisebridge-discuss] Party anyone?

[Michael Shiloh]

i found a partially working rave style mirrored wheel light effect 
thingy, with a mirror mounted on a motor and a speed control with audio 
input. the audio-to-motor controller is burnt out, but arduino should 
easily substitute and make for an interesting hackable party device. the 
motors work fine, and one of the two projector bulbs works.

i'm happy to donate this contraption to nb if there is interest
