Hi,
I did it again. I signed us up for the virtual edition of maker faire germany.
(June 18. https://maker-faire.de/ )
If you would like to visit Maker Faire, use this link to get your free ticket: https://app.vystem.io/event/maker-faire/signup
If you would like to volunteer at the booth, ping me.
One topic they wanted from us: please describe your project in a short video.
Instead of holding my face into the cam and give a 30sec short elevator pitch, I had the following idea.
Scene
A computer screen. Blinking cursor. A sentence like: Switch on the light in the kitchen. (perhaps with text-to-speech sound).
Scene
Kai or Yannick or someone else from this fantastic community in a close-up, switching the light in the kitchen and grinning at the camera.
3.4.5. Scene
The same applies to: Turn on the heating, Whatâs the weather like tomorrow, Turn on the TV, Is the dishwasher ready? Each time with a different community member taking over the manual task.
Last scene.
10th, 100th, 1000th openHAB people wave into a cam and show their love for the project.
Does that make sense?
If yes, are you a volunteer for that video?

I like the idea!
I would contribute to the last scene.

I could offer a short clip for the analog âFeed the catâ automation, if you are interested.

I think the beginning of the last scene could be kaiâs voice asking to set the scene to party mode. Then a bunch of people could do a webcam vid for you with ledâs that start flasing in the background.

Ok. First quick draft (inside the nextcloud folder). Thanks to @ysc , there is a built-in computer screen.
If you want to contribute, use one of the following actions (or be creative) & make a short video & upload it to luckow.org
David, turn up the heating.
Meike, lower the blinds.
Robert, the lawn needs watering.
Maik, put milk on your shopping list.
Petra, if you want to know what the weather will be like, look at the outdoor thermometer.
Jens, to listen to music, you have to turn up the loudspeaker.
Markus, you can pause âStranger Nightsâ on Netflix by pressing the pause button on the remote control.
Oliver, you can find out how tall the Eiffel Tower is on Google or in Meyerâs Konversationslexikon.
Stephan, dial your motherâs number on the phone to call her back.
And remember your contribution with a smiling face and winking hand for the community overview
I see the example videos are vertical.
I think horizontal videos would be better to maximize the used screen.
Don't Film Vertically GIF | Gfycat
Unless the finished video will be vertical, too of cause.

I uploaded my video.
Let me know if it is ok or if I have to change anything (like vertical orientation).
The command is: âChristoph, turn on the ceiling fan!â

Hopefully there will be a little more feedback over the long weekend.

Iâve recycled an old presentation vid of mine.
Cut at will, command would be â(Markus), stop (the kids from) wasting timeâ.

Thank you for your contributions Next draft. I will make the final cut by Sunday. If someone will add content, feel free.

The command right before the video clips needs to be longer.
I actually missed the first command in front of my video. And I was looking for it!
Maybe even do a âclear screenâ before the commands get posted by openHAB.
Bit that might break the âconversationâ.
