I've always wanted to have the super automated yard of lights.
I understand that years ago, they used a stepped down motor and a
shellaced coffee can with "on" signals scraped off. (I imagine a
plastic sheet with holes punched would work as well.)

I wonder if DMX is the way to go for this though... certainly
"standard" enough and has tons of channels.

Me, I just want a 48x48 matrix of lights to control.
RGB 48x48 would really rock. ;)  One of these days i'll break down and
build it. Anyone know what kind of refresh rates those electronic
billboards have?
