Ask HN: Remote Control LEDs How could a novice engineer replicate the app that controls the lights atop the Empire State Building? Looking to produce an interactive art exhibit where participants can control how a mural is lit up from home. Thanks! |

Google "Python light control with RPi (Raspberry Pi)". Drastically simplifies things that use to be quite complicated for the novice to dig in to.
If you're a book reader, look for "Raspberry Pi Cookbook" by Simon Monk. Has pretty much everything you'll need to know in once place, including how to approach what you're talking about.
