:eek: holly ****....so here's the question...how'd they make it work? i have a couple guesses

1. The guy(s) are electrical/computer FREAKS
2. They somehow hooked the lights on/off up to their instruments
3. There was a big box with different buttons for every different group of lights and the guy had a fun time pressing them the whole time.

what do you think?

watching it on my PC it look like it was Photoshopped. Just how the iceicle likes changed colors without moving. Even if it was PS'ed that was sick.

No i would say it is real.....it CAN be done, the local VoTech here one of the electronic classes always rigs their ceiling lights to do some fancy flashing with chasers and all kinds of good things every year for their open house....this guy deffinitly knows what hes doing

Sweet song, and when it went up and down in notes and the light swayed left to right, that was b!tchen.

I say it was made by
Stop animation.

Turn wut lights you want on, take a pic. Then turn wut lights you want on for the next beat, then take the picture, ect...

And I gaurentee you you can't even drive threw that street, it would be packed with cars if that wasn't stop animated, it would be packed.

Also, if 1 light went out it wouldn't matter if it was on a parallel circuit.

That has to be real, if you have ever been to a concert you would have noticed all of the lighting in the show is controlled by a computer. Kinda choreographed in the same manner. I would have to guess that this guy/gal is in the music industry or something.
It would kinda be like your music player on your pc that has a visualization plug in, Only more complex and more wires LOL.

This is a real light show most likely controlled by a computer.
Yes, the traffic would probably be busier than usual. But houses like these are often in high end neighborhoods where they have whole neighborhood holiday lighting displays.

Somethimes they need to set up a temporary electrical services to power just the holiday lighting displays for these houses. The larger temp services can be anywhere from 200-400 amp services. Thats the same size service as most homes just to run the christmas lights.:eek2:
