A group of Kirkland Google employees have given the campus’ holiday lights their own high-tech spin this year.

They’ve designed and installed a spectacular show consisting of over 8,000 LEDs that will be synchronized to music, and available for public viewing.

The team used both off-the-shelf hardware components and custom software to connect the lights to sequencing software that controls the lights’ color and intensity.

Visitors can tune into 95.3 FM to listen to the music, or hear it from speakers mounted in the courtyard.

The show will light up from 6-9 p.m., from through Jan. 5.

The Kirkland Google campus is located at 747 6th Street South in Kirkland.
