[Hidden-tech] projecting texts onto a wall

[Rich Roth]

There are so many options to project from a computer to the wall or 
large screen tv,
and you can get incoming texts if you have a google voice account.

Beyond that, putting those pieces together is pretty easy.

Only one warning, the same that applies to any computer driven presentation,
   Make sure you test with the EXACT equipment you are using for the event,
   can't say how many times I've see people scurrying around with 
nothing on the screen
   looking for cables or trying to get computer output to the screen.

I once participated in a project like this where people texted messages to a number, and then the person receiving the messages was able to read them before projecting them up onto the side of a building, so there was some regulation. Has anyone done this successfully? Is this done with a certain type of software? I’m just starting to explore how this might work— all input and advice is welcome.
