Whist you are at home watching your lawn grow, dust collect, etc. during these covid-19 times, you may actually be looking for somewhat more ‘geeky’, interesting and fun things to do and share. To that end, please I have created this thread.
I’ll start by saying that I’m engaged in getting my desktop ‘wallpaper’ to dance to my music. Unlike some here, the music I listen to is more old-timey. 16, 17, & 1800s stuff. I am working with glava. If you have not tried it, you might find it interesting and fun. I do, anyway.
Here’s a nice starters guide…
I’m working at figuring how-to have pyWal change the palette and get different patterns to work… useless, I understand.
Here’s a current screenshot:
Edit: here is using two styles at once:
Reference:
GLava, an OpenGL audio spectrum visualizer for X11, had a new release yesterday which includes improvements like FIFO support, support for disabling shader passes through GLSL, along with other enhancements and bug fixes.

Wonder if you can make something out of OB s logo, if you want too !
http://openbox.org/wiki/Main_Page
Two questions come to mind…
does archlabs want a strong (primary) affiliation with openbox?
the wiki ob logo is not in svg format and would need to be redeveloped from scratch
the attached image is all I can easily find to work with… (not much).

Don t know about AL s views, but my guess is that AL s based on BL which is based on CrunchBang, so it might be related to Openbox somehow.
Also; too bad OB s logo isn t in the svg format.
