I'm building a 5' stage backdrop for performing (I'm a singer/songwriter) using the ledstrip Arduino library (http://code.google.com/p/ledstrip/ http://code.google.com/p/ledstrip/) and 15' of lights I bought from coolight.com.hk. So far I have a little electret microphone hooked up to it and I have the lights reacting when I sing into it. I'm still working out how I want them to react in the final version (changing colour + speed/intensity), then I'm going to hook it up to a foot pedal as well so I can trigger it selectively (e.g., during the chorus of a couple songs) and build the actual backdrop setup. The Arduino is really fun. After this I'm going to try my hand at custom guitar pedals and maybe a theremin.
