Hm - this one is $31 for 16ft, which comes out to around $6/meter:

Not sure if it's fully programmable - might be hackable though.

Which probably means you can buy cheap Chinese versions for quite a bit
less than that...

there are already, i believe, lightbulbs and gels

wires are all run.. i think all we need are a couple of relay boards (which
i have) and a controller to sequence the lights. And if the lightbulbs
burn out i have a huge box of replacements (if they're normal lightbulbs)
i think it would be really expensive to replace all that light with LEDs
and i would not ask for sudo or omni to put community money toward that if
we can just play with the free stuff that's already in there.
also, last i bought addressible LED tape it was more like $60 per meter,
for the sparse stuff. If you think it's cheaper let's have links.. still,
it's hard to beat free.

I just want to remind everyone that the disco dancefloor can light up,
but the controller doesn't exist anymore. John (the landlord) says that
all the li
ghts in there work, which means all we need is a controller.
I have plenty of relay boards we can hook up to that stuff, so anyone
who is interested in getting the lightup dancefloor working again should
let me know
, and we can work on it together. Or at least i can supply you with the
parts and materials and help you if you get stuck.
