Terror and technology combine at the Meister House Halloween display. I had a chance to speak with the Fox 8 News morning team about how we create our holiday lightshow experience.

Even the Agent Meister Mom was there to explain how she collects the hundreds of Halloween decorations that make up our display.

Work continues on the 2010 Halloween display at the Meister House. We decided to move the graveyard from the side to the front of the house. Once setup is complete, we’ll use a small FM transmitter to allow people driving by to listen in on the show, which will be setup to run daily between 7 to 9pm.

The lightshow is run using a D-Light 16 channel controller hooked up to a small home-built PC running AuroraShow.

Our local Geek Squad USO 1817 took an opportunity to be part of the 2010 Pro Football Hall of Fame Parade in Canton, Ohio today. It’s always good fun to hear the crowd shouting “Geek Squad!” as soon as they see the Geekmobiles.

The crowd went wild when the Best Buy Blue Shirts and Geek Squad Agents would “spin” the float during the parade.

Additional photos from the parade can be found here.
