About Snowtime

We hope you enjoy Snowtime - it's our way of saying 'Have A Very Merry Christmas'!

To turn our bright spark into something that is fun and works well, we've mashed up a lot of technologies we normally use (AJAX, Django, SSH, and Python) with a few that we don't (special effects equipment and DMX controllers). The result is a snow machine controlled by the internet - we'll be blogging about our full setup once we've finished being buried under all the snow.

Oh, and don't worry it's not real snow. It's shredded paper that we'll be composting once we shut down for Christmas.

We'll certainly be enjoying a white Christmas, we hope you do too!
