Project Blinkenlights is in Toronto. Tonight!

Some people must be reading this blog after all. Either that, or I'm just psychic. (I'm quite unscientifically discarding the random coincidence hypothesis.) I've been a fan of Project Blinkenlights since I first heard about it a few years ago on a report on BBC World, and about 6 months ago I mused on this blog (here) about how Toronto's financial district could use some high quality live building animations of the calibre that only the German Chaos Computer Club seem to be able to do. Well, just a few minutes ago, when casually perusing the web site of Toronto's Nuit Blanche to figure out what I might what to go out to see tonight (2008 marks Toronto's 3rd Nuit Blanche event), I stumbled on the entry for Stereoscope -- what they are calling Toronto's Project Blinkenlights installation. It's going to be at City Hall, which happens to be a stone's throw from where I live. (It might already be live, as it's gotten dark outside as I am typing this!) To think that I might have missed it, and I live so close...
