[dorkbotpdx-blabber] lightbar is coming!

[John Brown]

Would my matild.A (Multitudinal Asynchronously Tactile Interactive
Luminous Display version A) be welcome? She's a home built multi-touch
unit.

I can set up an extra output for an external display and people can
"paint" on the walls or create a visual, interactive output to music
or some other such thing.
