:D
I modified the idea even further in one of the YouTube comments I made. Put the soundcard output to .mp3. (I doubt the quantization from compression would distort it too much.) Then you could use the headphone output of any tiny portable MP3 player to act as a controller for the mirror head. (The solenoids for the mirror deflection actually could be modified cheap headphone speakers.) And considering the size of average yet decent laser pointers, this means you'd have a very portable package for a laser show. If the software in the demo is open source, it woudn't take very much to have a really cool and customizable DIY portable laser lightshow. And it would be able to show something much more interesting than only random swirly patterns.
