Classic computing on modern hardware: an expandable eZ80 CPU card running bare-metal Lisp. The MakerLisp machine is a portable, modular computer system, designed to recapture the feel of classic computing, with modern hardware. The machine centers on a 2” x 3.5” business card-sized CPU, which can be used stand-alone, or plugged in to a 2”

A friend introduced me to neopixels (WS2812) programmable LED’s. That would be great for my word clock, so I re-did the clock. It is very much a mixup with a slightly different size and code. The 8×8 WS2812 modules are also cheaper than the colorduino, I used before. Check out my previous Ible if you want to
