I haven't been able to articulate anything witty,
but I'll go ahead and
just say: Ethan I don't know what you do with those BF-lasers, but it
sounds damn awesome, anyway. Your stock just went up. It's hard to make
lasers anything but sci-fi radical coolness.
Light show hobby. Inspired by the Def Leppard music video "Pour some sugar
on me."
Everything is from China and solid state now. There is a laser "con/fest"
of sorts and a small bit of vintage computing cross-over. Like any
technology I suppose it grew up along side of personal computing. Early
animation/graphics systems probably existed (low quantity) on S100 systems
then moved to things like the Commodore Amiga (Pangolin) and then IBM PC
(but using coprocessor cards and stuff.)

There are more videos on youtube but I just grabbed one I know.
Just another geekfest, and that's just one of a number of rooms.
