Students at Politechnika Wroc?awska or the Wroclawska University of Technology in Poland had themselves a grand ol’ time rigging their dorm with a light show that played the theme from Knight Rider.

After this clip, check out their website P.I.W.O.3 (Google Translate) for many more video clips.

    This is from the university I teach at. The students never run out of ways to impress me.

    Lol. All I can imagine is one student trying to study for finals and his light keeps turning on and off and changing colors.

    This brings a special smile to my face. In the late 70′s, some “artist” talked the city of Minneapolis into sponsoring a light show based on lasers and interior lights in the city’s lone skyscraper. I had a perfect view from my rent-subsidized apartment, so I through a party.

    It was a disaster. The radio station played the music at double speed. No one could see the lasers. The building lights would turn on, then off, and need a minute to turn back on again. Complete disaster. It made for a great party.

    It is nice to see this sort of thing sorted out 30 years later.

    It is very similar to project Blinkenlights from 2001 in Berlin and 2002 in Paris.

    “Threw” a Party, not “Through” a Party.

    Neat Lights BTW!

    This display is light-ist and objectifies lights!

    It’s almost as though students at Polish tech schools might actually be learning something.

    Who’s the jackass who tried to take a flash picture of the thing?

    Ha, Wes. Don’t you realize that everyone has a camera now? It’s annoying, but there they are.

    Golly, they reinvented synchronised lighting! Hook them up with the fireflies.

    Hi,

    I reminds me to what has been done some 15 years ago at the Dutch univerity of Delft. It was playing “tetris” on a building.

    But nonetheless this is also very very cool…
