The rig:
HE-Laserscan III -> bILDA -> Chinese 40k galvos

I downloaded what I though were some of the more creative shows from he-laserscan.de, and copied all the .heb files into a new directory. From there I deleted the frames I didn't want, and mapped the rest to keys on the keyboard.

The laser was surrounded by a superb automated intelligent light show designed and built by the brothers of the fraternity where I was playing. Due to the use of pre-programmed cues alongside the on-the-fly AI-generated effects in their system, the music was played through a seriously hacked computer there -- it was not possible to use a predetermined show. Instead, I played the projector like one would a musical instrument.

It was great

The beam effects were absolutely gorgeous. Props to Kolimann and Tschosef for their awesome work.
