Brightness responsive to decibels?

Is it possible to set my vision chucks pattern to get bright when the decibels are higher? Like when the bass drops they go 100%?

Is the app down?

I may have missed an announcement but I can't get any shows to download songs in the app. I've used it without problem in the past. Any fixes we know of? Hoping to use for a show in 2.5 weeks, back up plan is a show page and get someone in the remote, but the app would be preferable.

Flowtoys Connect DIY

Hey. I'm a Linux hacker / maker and a podpoi user, and have been trying to find info about interfacing with FlowOS through open-source software, and maybe build a DIY 'pro' bridge as teased here in the knowledge base... Unfortunately there seems to be very scant info out there. I found an old repository for the Flowtoys app (?), but not even sure it's the actual app..

Is there anyone else who had looked into interfacing with FlowOS Connect? I love my podpoi as a closed system, but being able to do meaningful stuff from Linux would be great.

Any alternatives for flow cord?

If you don't know what it is: Back in 2011, flowtoys developed a rope specifically for spinning called flow cord. Most people didn't like it because they thought it had too much stretch. I loved it. It was soft and supple, just the right thickness, and the small amount of stretch was perfect for rope dart. It was discontinued in 2019 and replaced with smithy cord. Smithy is okay, but it is nowhere near as supple in my opinion and it is quite a bit more abrasive. Anyone know of a suitable substitute?

Flowtoys LED zebra stick repair

Hi - I have a zebra stick LED staff from flowtoys. Yes - I know it’s discontinued. When I’m spinning it will shut off randomly, upon impact of my hand, even when fully charged. It’s been fixed once before. Anyone have experience fixing these? Suggestions? I think something is loose inside below the light cap in the shaft.

Need Led poi recommendations

Hi I was a performer for many years and stopped for a while but wanted to get back into spinning. I tend to have quite a relaxed style of poi with little contact. Was looking for some solid mid range led poi that aren't going to immediately break and will be nice and hypnotic to watch with lots of different programs if possible. Recommendations are very welcome thanks!

Contact Staff Question

I have recently been using my contact staff a lot more and I have unfortunately ended up with several blisters on my fingers. Do you guys have any suggestions on gloves I could use to help prevent future blisters? I currently need to wait for my hand to heal before I move forward using it again. Also please don't just tell me to keep going until my fingers callous. I'd like to use my hand in every day life and not have it get destroyed.

Poi that blows bubblea

Hi there! I was at electric forest in 2023 and I saw someone using a poi that was blowing bubbles as it spun. I've been trying to find it ever since. I went back to EF this year and asked one of the astral hoop vendors and she said there is a girl out of Detroit that makes them. I have been searching Google and etsy, endlessly with no luck. Does anyone have any info on these? Thanks so much!

Ants on a Melon Shipping

Hello fellow flow artists!

I ordered a light whip from AOAM after I lost my amazon one at EDC. I needed an excuse to buy a better quality one and I am so excited!!

My question is, anyone who has purchased from Ants on a Melon- what was your experience like with their customer service/shipping?

I placed an order on the 23rd of May, and I didn’t expect to get it the next day but the website does say Ground shipping was 2-5 days. I haven’t received an update that my order is even in transit??

I’m definitely patiently waiting, just curious if anyone had any personal experience with this. I’m assuming that they are a small company. Not expecting Amazon quickness, just a little anxious. I sent a message to customer service on Friday so will be hopefully waiting to hear back next week.

Thanks in advance for anyone willing to share their experience! 💗

Flowtoys discount codes and shipping times

Hello!!
I wanted to buy three Flowmoja balls but the price is really high, so do anyone know how and where to find some discount code? I searched a lot but find nothing working and to me even a 10% discount will mean a lot.
Also I would like to know how much time it will take for them to ship to Europe (Italy) or if they also have stocks here.

Thank you so much for any information!!

Hello artists! Ideally I’m looking for a collapsible Dragon Staff that can switch from Fire to Led end pieces.

Hello artists! I currently have a fire dragon staff which I’ve up cycled out the trash can. She’s great! But I like to travel and want to try out LED also. Ideally… I’m looking for a collapsible Dragon Staff that can switch from Fire to Led end pieces. I’ve seen mix reviews about collapsible. My friend has a contact collapsible and it’s great. Anyone have some brand recs for what I’m looking for????
