The animation on the garage definitely looks better in-person.

I finally got around to recording videos of the #Thanksgiving Show last night (my last chance, since the #Christmas Show starts debuts tonight).
Here's one. More at lightsongranger.com/shows/2025-t...

New Blog Post: As a follow-up to the other, though I wrote this one first, here is how re-used much of the same concepts and flows from my SMS/Text-based solution to build a 'Light Show On-Demand' feature for my website... again using #Node-RED, #HomeAssistant and a #Cloudflare Worker.

Thanksgiving is working. Just tested some #Christmas stuff and, of course, a minor change means re-rendering/re-uploading a bunch. Should be done by tonight or tomorrow. In the meantime, a little preview...
An AI-generated image of a turkey on a dinner table with pilgrims and Native Americans sitting together drinking beer and laughing. The turkey has two heads.
The prompt: Generate a photorealistic image of a grown male turkey, pilgrims and Native Americans sitting around a table having beer and laughing together.
#Thanksgiving
Trees are up. #Thanksgiving is ON (nearly). Now I have to re-render and re-upload everything for Thanksgiving and #Christmas because I had 2 snowflakes in the wrong order in the #xLIghts model chain.
Conversion to the Festivus layout is nearly complete. Tomorrow, I'll finish the MegaTree and put up the MiniTrees. Then hopefully very little debugging to call it show-ready.
From Christmas 2024. When a visitor triggered the on-demand Christmas show, this was the intro video played before the show started. I used Meta.ai to create the elf, Elevenlabs for the text-to-speech voice, then animated with Hedra.
Not sure if I'll use it again this year or make something new.
This one actually debuted in 2022, but one of my favs. For 2025, I shot at a different angle.

You're not paranoid if they really are watching you.

This is from/for the 2025 Halloween Horror Lights Community Project, but I think I missed the deadline for submission.
Have you ever flashy-thinged me?

Another new one for 2025!

It's about time I uploaded some videos.

The house with the scary pointy teeth thought they could improve on perfection! (Okay it's pretty cool.)
I just noticed the guys who do Halloween Horror Lights have posted their community project sequence for 2025. I haven't looked at it yet, but if you're interested...

several SnailBonezβ’οΈ skeleton snails with a skull for a shell that actually look pretty sick but I mean,
several OctoBonezβ’οΈ brand octopus skeletons on a shelf along with a SpiderBonezβ’οΈ spider skeleton
my favorite subgenre of Halloween decoration is βskeleton of things that absolutely do not have skeletonsβ
We'll see, tomorrow night, if the show can start up, play/respond to on-demand requests and shut down without any manual intervention. That's the goal.
Power supplies or pixels are getting weak with age. Had to add a lot of power injection that I haven't needed in the past. Also spent too much time trying to get the latest FPP to work. Gave up and went back to previous version.
Halloween patio decorations update. π»πβοΈπΆ
neighborβs really taking Halloween to the next fucking level
40 days till Halloween !
Under the moonlight, you see a sight that almost stops your heart
Thanks. I wired and modeled them the hard way, but was worth the effort. If you get some, be warned. They're addictive. I keep wanting to add more.
Testing for this year's #Halloween light show. Almost there.
