A Game In Progress

Brown students today transformed the University's Sciences Library into the world's largest tetris game. Using christmas lights, homemade circuit boards and a pc running linux, students of "tech house" (http://techhouse.brown.edu/) lit up the library's south face with a computer-controlled display of the venerable tetris computer game. Passers-by could play a game while listening to a recording of the game's original music. A website (http://bastilleweb.techhouse.org/) describes the project, along with pictures and movies of the game in action.
