Software

  • Laser Show Designer 1000 (Amiga) - LSD1000  was Pangolin's first commercial software, this full functioning program originally cost $995. It is now available to help hobbyists, experimenters, and those on a budget to get started with laser light shows.

Two DOS utilities [as .zip files] for those working on ILDA frame format import/export contributed by O. Steven Roberts.  He writes, "These utilities are for for hobbyists and others who are developing tools for ILDA frame format file support [to import/export .ild files] and who need a sanity check as Pangolin and X29 are merciless when it comes to errors in a .ild file. Programming is by Mike Svob".

  • ILDAWRITE.EXE [ILDAwrite.zip - 32 Kb] Takes a .txt file containing human readable numbers and converts it to an ILDA format frame. The input file format is the number of points(N) ,then the 3 axis data for the frame as a signed integer N,x,y,z,x,y,z,x,y,z... where x,y, and Z are +10,000 to -10,000, for a 2D frame, make all Zs equal to zero.
    It will prompt you for the file name to create and then create the file and exit back to the dos prompt. All points are set to full white and blanking is NOT supported. A sample input file, ildawrt.txt is provided. Note that there is a carriage return and line feed between each number. ILDAWRITE.exe is fully compatible with files written by Qbasic, Quickbasic, Visualbasic and Notepad, making it easy to create raw files for conversion. I've also used this to create liquid sky framesets using numbers generated by a basic program. The programs do not
    support crossing directories, so the files must all be in the same directory. 
  • ILDAREAD.EXE [ReadILD.zip - 36 KB] This utility strips a one frame ilda file to a text based n,x,y,z format, where N is the number of points in the frame and x,y,z are signed integer point data, so the output is N,X,Y,Z,X,Y,Z..... The actual data will appear as a vertical list with one coordinate data per line. Color data and blanking data are NOT provided. Cross directory support is not provided, both the input and output files MUST be in the same directory. if ildaread.exe spots a error in a ILDA file header, it will tell you what the error is.

 

FAQ

Ss Lilu -

There’s a certain electricity in the air whenever SS LILU appears — whether on a grainy TikTok live at 2 a.m., a hyperpop-tinged SoundCloud drop, or a latex-clad cameo in an underground Berlin club video. She’s not just an artist. She’s a cipher, a provocation, and perhaps the most intriguing chaos agent in alternative pop right now.

But who is SS LILU? The question feels almost beside the point. The name itself — part militant abstraction, part feminine whisper — refuses easy categorization. Fans have spun theories: a discarded drag persona, an AI glitch, a former child star reborn. LILU, for her part, feeds the confusion with surgical precision. In a recent Discord Q&A, when asked about her background, she replied with a single emoji: 🧬. Musically, SS LILU operates in the collision zone between PC Music’s candy-coated dissonance, mid-2000s emo fragility, and industrial clang. Her 2023 breakout track, “Kiss Kiss局域网” (Mandarin for “LAN”), mashed a chopped soprano vocal, a distorted children’s choir, and a bass drop that feels like a system crash. It’s unsettling. It’s addictive. It’s been streamed over 12 million times — mostly by people who claim they “don’t get it” but can’t stop hitting replay.

Her live shows are ritualistic, low-tech, and high-impact. At a recent sold-out NYC club date, she spent the first ten minutes lying motionless in a pile of stuffed animals while a slowed-down remix of “Blue (Da Ba Dee)” looped. Then, without warning, she launched into a hardstyle remix of her unreleased track The crowd, mostly Gen Z and dressed in a mix of cyber-goth and kindergarten-core, lost its collective mind. The Fandom: A Cult or a Conversation? Online, SS LILU’s fanbase — known as the LILUminati — operates like a decentralized art collective. They run a sprawling wiki documenting her lore (including a widely accepted theory that she’s three different people), host DIY remix competitions, and have raised over $40,000 for trans youth charities in her name. Notably, LILU herself never asks for this. She simply retweets their posts with a single period. ss lilu

is expected later this year — or maybe it’s already out, hidden on a forgotten GeoCities page. With SS LILU, you really never know.

Her forthcoming project, Cradle 2 the Crypt , reportedly features production from d0llywood1, Umru, and a mysterious collaborator listed only as “GODMODE.” The lead single, leaked last month and immediately sparked a meme war: Is the line “Jesus wept in my Frappuccino” sincere, satire, or both? LILU’s only comment: “Yes.” Visual Identity: The Mask as Message Visually, SS LILU is unforgettable. She performs almost exclusively in custom-made latex masks that obscure everything but her mouth and one eye — an aesthetic she’s called “post-identity chic.” In press shots, she’s often pictured holding obsolete tech: a Palm Pilot, a MiniDisc player, a Tamagotchi on life support. The effect is nostalgic and deeply alien. There’s a certain electricity in the air whenever

“She gives us the freedom to interpret,” says Mars, 22, a LILUminati moderator from Manila. “She’s not selling a brand. She’s selling a puzzle with missing pieces, and we get to invent what fits.” In an era where pop stars are expected to be relentlessly accessible — podcast confessional booths, 24/7 social media presence, behind-the-scenes vlogs — SS LILU is a radical withdrawal. She’s never done an in-person interview. Her “face reveal” is an ongoing joke she’s promised to deliver “when the last Blockbuster closes.” And yet, she feels more present than ever, precisely because she refuses to be fully known.

Here’s a feature-style piece on — written as if for a music or culture publication, spotlighting the artist’s persona, sound, and impact. Under the Skin of SS LILU: Pop’s Shape-Shifting Anti-Heroine Words by [Your Name] But who is SS LILU

Perhaps that’s the point. SS LILU isn’t hiding — she’s inviting us to stop demanding transparency from artists and start engaging with mystery as an art form. In her world, the mask isn’t a wall. It’s a mirror.
