I developed the software for Arnout Meijers installation 8-bit Universe. The installation consisted of a lot of fiberglass wires carrying the light coming from 2 custom LED panels. It was on display for a week at the Glow festival in Eindhoven.

A Cinder application pre-rendered video content so it could be displayed on 2 LED displays. For playback I wrote a highly optimized C program for the Raspberry Pi, including custom 10 bit SPI bitbanging and transitions between different pre-rendered video assets.
