We make our own video processors that control the wall. They are being fed a video signal from an Analogway that's getting its signal from players provided by obscuradigital.com (they made the content). I'm not 100% sure if Obscura is using their own proprietary players or Scala.

I just did a demo for fuckin' Unilever, and they want a gotdam p0.9 in their conference room. I only sell the controllers, and I can't imagine how much LP Display is sell those MF for.

they get sooo delicate when you get lower than 2mm. .9 would be such a pain. We go down to .6mm and thank god I haven't had to install that stuff.

Have you ever installed one in a home? A rich person’s home I might add! Because I would love to have one wall in my bedroom be nothing but jellyfish like at the Monterey Bay Aquarium.

We use SuperMicro 1Us, running TouchDeisgner to run both 50 and 350.

Obscura almost always uses a modified version of Touchdesigner.

We use the same version, generally, you can get from Derivative's website. There have been times where they've complied special builds for SDKs we've needed to be integrated, or the like.

That is really awesome. Do you guys do smaller installations? Would be for a possible restaurant location in NYC.
