    I’ve seen it done at geek conventions, to excellent effect. They generally live on a big screen, in the bar, at such events.

    Though they can degenerate into ego wars, in amusing ways. One event had to ask people to limit using external systems to access the pixel wall in the bar. Someone used AWS to run animations on it. It tied up 2/3 of the entire event’s fibre backbone, still they killed it’s access. I think it was a 10Gb fibre setup. So they effectively DOSed it.
