neat! i was wondering if that would work last week

i feel like it's probably easier to have 1000 electrodes than 1000 lasers tho

Wonder if using the same approach that resin printers use would work?

• SLA resin printers use a superfast/accurate motorised mirror to direct the laser where its wanted

• mSLA resin printers use a strong light source instead of a laser + an LCD to mask the area they don't want exposed

Optics may help to reduce the amount of lasers.
