Computerized animated “dancing” house light displays include:
We were sad to hear that the popular computerized animated “dancing” lights house at The Whitemarsh Island home of the Kesslers in the Battery point subdivision at 105 Mapmaker Lane is not up this year. However, here are few other computerized “dancing” lights display animated with music. Lights choreographed to blink, twink and fade in red, blue, green and white, in sync with a custom-mixed soundtrack of holiday tunes.
