Spotify And Philips Hue Partner To Bring Music Visualisations To Actual Lights

Naturally, to use this you’ll first need to have a Hue Bridge, as well as colour-capable Philips Hue lights. Then, you’ll need to link your Philips Hue and Spotify accounts. From there, as long as you play tracks via your Spotify account, your Philips Hue lights will adjust their lighting effects depending on the track’s genre, temp, mood and so on. While it’s probably possible to achieve similar effects before, this partnership between the two companies means that you will no longer need any third party solution to achieve it....

Star Wars The Rise Of Skywalker Why Only Two Force Ghosts Appeared

In an interview with Yahoo, VFX supervisor Roger Guyett said that it was never part of the plan to have Force ghost Ben Solo appear alongside Luke and Leia. The VFX team never even created a Force ghost version of the former Kylo Ren. Guyett also went on to say that an on-screen cameo by Anakin Skywalker’s Force ghost was never in the cards too. That said, we do get to hear Anakin’s voice (Hayden Christensen) along with the voices of the other fallen Jedi during the final battle between Rey and Palpatine, when Rey was on the brink of imminent defeat....
