I’m testing the control system for Make a bigger splash!

The neon tubes are powered by ‘metalbox’ transformers and ‘neonline’ dimmers.

The dimmerboxes take a 10v analogue control signal from a showtec multi-exchanger, which is a dmx controller for analogue lighting gear.

The dmx signals come from an enttec open dmx ethernet unit, controlled by the artnet protocol via ethernet.

I have written a puredata external to output artnet packets, based on the pd netsend object by Miller Puckette. Open source is great.

And it worked first time I plugged it all together..
