This basically blinks a 10x8 matrix of normal leds, using a rp2040, but lets you change the blink frequency, and add shapes, and sublimal text of regular text to the display.

Currently is plays a 2 minute cycle with

  • subliminal text on first run after reboot
  • some sublimal images, ending in a quick look at it
  • some blank part of matrix,
  • some floating text followed by happy face
  • and some clear text at the end
  • potentiometer to change blink frequency
  • touch sensor to disable subliminal message and shapes and return to simple blink supercomputer
  • add code to run off a usb-powerbank to burn just enough current every 15 second cycle to keep the powerbank alive https://github.com/jameszah/usb-powerbank-keepalive
  • change the patterns a little -- more faces, less beer
