| This is not an insignificant amount of complexity - I would assume it would end up including some sort of DSL for creating complex architectural lighting cues, as well as maybe some form of web interface/etc. | This is not an insignificant amount of complexity - I would assume it would end up including some sort of DSL for creating complex architectural lighting cues, as well as maybe some form of web interface/etc. |
