Nicely done!

That looks very cool
It must take a ton of work to program this ?
Would look nice on a tuba or titan stack vplated

Wow...that looks EXACTLY like my rig.

How do they do that?
Is there some kind of reflective tape on the wood?
Or is it all done by a projector?

Nothing that could be taken down after each show I presume?

It's done by projector, fed by a computer.
This is the website.

One needs a bit of a stack going on for that, though the irony of doing it on a pair of stick mounted jack 10's, 20 foot apart, works for me. Somewhere like bobs place could use it well. There's a Tuff Cab clear paint that has glitter/flake in it - I'm not well up on paint for projector screens, but that might work, or white cabs plus clear on top, and just project the music videos straight onto them, for novelty.

I have a mate who does projection mapping. He often just uses a plywood sign with the club's logo on, painted white. Add projector and an hour or 2 actually mapping the thing, and you have one badass lightshow. Their projector mounts were a bit rough though - they used shopping baskets!

Ahh!, ....so you map the cab edges/lines, and specify different areas/regions, etc., and the software does the rest, with a music / Mic feed...?

Yes, that's pretty well much it. If you have a surface that is not at 90° to the projector, you can compensate when performing the initial mapping to allow for this distortion. Areas can also be allowed/not allowed to be projected onto. Add this all together, and you end up with something like the stuff they have done in the vid (although I think they may have done a few extra 'fancy' features to get it looking like it does).

The initial setup is done by projecting a grid, and then you deform that to get the mapping. The computer then uses this mapping when projecting to then make it look kickass!

Hope that makes sense

Wow, interesting!
