By using the very simple and cheap PIC Microchip micro-controller it's possible to generate signals. With these signals you can display all kinds of pixel patterns on any VGA monitor or beamer. During the workshop participants will create their own "VGA test box" that will make it possible for you to do the same.

From the initial idea of getting a macbook logic board and making it run again, my best friend and I had been toiling with several ways to display the repaired innards of an older macbook.
