Dormitory Turned Into Huge Color Display 69
macson_g writes "Students from Wroclaw University of Technology (Poland) once again turned one of their dormitories into huge display. The project is called P.I.W.O. (B.E.E.R.). This time they converted a 10-story building into 4-color, 12x10 display. The business was used to display animations, and to play interactive games as well. On the project page (in Polish, Google translation here) you can watch an almost hour-long video, featuring music videos, a Tetris session, a dancing Michael Jackson, Duke Nukem and Mario."

Nice! Does anyone know the name of the first song on the hour long video? That's a really nice chiptune.
Well, it was driving me insane as I have been listening to Chiptune songs for the last 2-3weeks, and I knew I had heard it, so after a search through my play list, here it is:
Mr. Spastic - Sloppy
His album and many great others can be got for free (under creative commons) from 8bit Peoples [8bitpeoples.com]

"Piwo" as a word in Polish means beer.
