Today I wanted to get this ultra-thin LED matrix working with Raspberry Pi in NodeJS as part of my work on my new ST4i workshop. The SeeedStudio Ultrathin Red LED matrix. It’s such a nice bright matrix, I really love it, but they’re a little weird to work with. They use the HUB75 protocol which […]
2015 has gone by in a blur – at first I couldn’t remember the details of what I did. There have been so many different threads and distractions that it occasionally felt like I didn’t accomplish much. But now I’ve looked back at my calendar I’ve realised that there was actually a lot going on. […]
It’s been a busy year but I’ve managed to squeeze in one last CreativeJS workshop on the 9th and 10th December in Brighton. It’s a two day course based in Clearleft’s fantastic HQ on Middle Street. Tickets go on sale on Friday at 11am and start at £499, or £399 for freelancers. And in case […]
UPDATE : Please note – applications have now closed. My CreativeJS workshop returns to Brighton on the 9th and 10th December, and (inspired by Remy and Julie) I’ll be offering 2 diversity scholarship places. Diversity in tech is something I care deeply about, and although the problem won’t be solved overnight, this small gesture is […]

2014 – the year of the laser
It’s New Year’s Eve as I write this, the perfect time for little reflection on the departing year. And although my blog has been a little neglected, the annual reviews are still coming – this is the 8th I’ve done so far. My overriding memory of 2014 is that of variety. Whereas 2013 was mainly […]
A handful of super-early-bird tickets for my new workshop on sale for one hour only on Thursday at 11am Still calling it the Internet Of Things? Well that’s OK, but I’m calling it Stuff That Talks To The Interwebs or ST4I from now on, just to be contrary. 🙂 And I’ve put together a brand […]
At last – Online CreativeJS workshops!
My workshops in Brighton are brilliant fun and I love running them (just two tickets left for my next ones!) but the fact is that many of you just can’t physically get here. I’ve long been thinking about how best to put them online and now I have a plan! I’ve teamed up with my […]
