Heheh. Yep. I believe the music is Trans-Siberian Orchestral.

Having one synched to the Dead Kennedys' "Holiday In Cambodia" would kick even more ass.

That is just, yes. That is.
I, I can't look away.

As it was stated before, this is what the Laser Technicians who work for Rock Concerts, Raves, and the like do in their spare time.

Now, I wanna know if the lights are programmed to work for other tunes, or just that particular one. I'm sure the family would be going nuts after about 1 day of the same music over and over...

The lights move in time with the music.

Oh, man, that just bloody RULES. I want to shake the hand of whoever set that up.

Ahh. And what song is it? OR what piece of music? Anyone know?

I think my mind just exploded with glee.

That's better than the time my block synchronized the lights to Adeste Fidelis for the drive-throughs, which was at least three times as good as the time we got a section of our blinking tree lights (the tree on the inside, visible through the family room window) to blink Morse Code for "piss off".

It's pretty good, but I'm pretty sure that, at the very least, some elements are photoshopped. The first thing that comes to mind is the Peace symbol. You can clearly see that, while ahead of the furtherest snowman statue and behind the nearest row of snowman statues, when the display is fully lighted (on any one of the percussion heavy beats) there is no object present to make that Peace symbol.

In the morning, I will probably do a more in depth analysis, but that is the first thing I notice.

GadgetCorp called it earlier. Trans-Siberian Orchestra (http://www.trans-siberian.com/).

EDIT: This particular song is called "Wizard in Winter".

You know, if I were to say something inflammatory, it'd only because I'm jealous. Bravo, you crazy people. I'd love to see the state controller behind that thing. ^^;
