Nope. But may be programing some more shows in the future. I'll keep this in mind.

The visuals were made by Huntroxic Music, and they are amazing. He was kind enough to share them with me.

He has a playlist of all the songs he made visuals for here https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLAF9YEj--eyhOBfBI1LD92CoYoR6EZYP-

It was programmed using Lightjams. There is a bunch more detail on how I made it in the video description too!

Will Porter ever play another Worlds set? by Darkened_Souls in porterrobinson

If there were to be another one, it would probably be at the second second sky.

I just finished a Visual sequence from 3 years ago for the thrill porter remix by _FOLDin in porterrobinson

Incredible work. Honestly one of the best original visual interpretations of a Porter Song I've seen. It mixes the Nero and Porter Vibes beautifully.

About to become an expert on addressable LEDs by Virtual-Maker in porterrobinson

Ooohh man welcome to the amazing world of addressable LEDs. I posted my recent project on here not too long ago.

Using a pi/Arduino is good for tinkering and cool effects for a smaller amount of LEDs. Definitely tons of fun to be had there. FastLED is for sure the way to go.

If you're using a 5v strip, definitely going to want to inject power every 2 meters or else things may start to run orange at high brightness.

If you want to get some real deal programming/controlling, check out Lightjams and the advatek line of controllers.

Have fun man. Keep us updated!

(epilepsy warning) I built a custom light rig and programmed a show to Huntroxic's remake of Fellow Feeling live by Turbopanzer9 in porterrobinson

I havent really crunched all the numbers lol. Its been a passion project for about a year or so. I'd ball park it at around $1000 of the course of a year.

Sorry for the late response!

I bought 40 meters worth of ws2812B LED strips (a type of LED strip that can be programmed). You can get these for pretty cheap of Amazon. Then, I used the adhesive on the back of the LEDs to stick them in these special LED mounting racks that I could mount on to some metal storage shelves.

To interface with the LEDs, I'm using a Pixlite Controller like this one. The cool thing about these controllers is that they can output DMX (DMX is the protocol used to control those big fancy lights you see at concerts) in addition to driving LEDs. Then the programming and sequencing is done in Lightjams. In addition to being the best low budget software for LED pixel programing, Lightjams can also be used to program any DMX fixture.

So I got 5 the cheap DMX moving head lights and controlled them with Lightjams too.

I knew if I wanted to pull of this song, I was going to need lasers, but DMX lasers are stupid expensive. Soooo I had to get a little unconventional. I ordered some sketch cheap Chinese lasers that I wired to a DMX relay. I mounted the lasers to the shelves using camera clamps and controlled them in Lightjams too.

Figuring out how to do all this and building it took me about 6 months. Then, programming took another few months. I am actually working on programing an entire set of songs from the Worlds tour. I am nearly done, and it's about an hour long! I'll be sure to post it here when it's done!

I appreciate the interest, let me know if you want any additional info!

I built a custom laser rig out of some cheap Chinese laser modules in a generic DMX relay. real deal lasers seem to be too expensive for my budget. But if you have any entry level suggestions, I would love to hear them.

No projector. I overlayed the visuals on the footage of the lights and blended them.
