Press Room

play pong There have been a couple of reports on Blinkenlights in the press so far. Here you find a list of what is known to us. If you come across a report on Blinkenlights that is not included in this list it would be nice if you give us some notice. Thanks.

Our own view of things is shown in the documentation videos on Blinkenlights, Arcade and Stereoscope — plus the talk from Chaos Communication Camp 2023 that tells the whole story of the project.
