But, when I leave it open, I'd like to have something more interesting showing on screen if it's going to be visible from the audience. Any ideas/suggestions as to what to run, that would be visually interesting, but not too CPU intensive? > > > > Thanks. > > > > -ken > > Very good.

For last night's show (with Audiobraille) I took Frank's suggestion and ran meterbridge in old-skool VU mode, and an RXVT with aseqdump, in addition to my Xclock. It made it a bit more interesting to look at for the couple people sitting off to one side of the stage. The aseqdump scrolling up looks somewhat like a tracker, which I guess might have confused any techno/house/IDM musicians who might have been lurking around back there (there weren't any AFAICT).
