Ok,
Based on some of the past/future XCSSA presentations of cooler bot,
64SID, propeller demos and lights display, any possibility of some
combination such as:
a) Update cooler bot to use $69 battery operated fridge :

b) Add a video feed (
http://blog.makezine.com/archive/2005/08/how_to_cvs_video_camera_h.html
) to the 64SID to create music based on lights display (

c) Modify cooler bot to mimic
http://hackaday.com/2009/12/28/lightdrawing-robot/#more-19967 ,
perhaps utilizing the CVS video hack above. (guess the picture before
completion and win a free soda)
d) Use the lights display (via
http://hackaday.com/2009/12/28/shadow-buttons/ ) to 'program' cooler
bot to draw a picture. Or less complex, use a spinning pov display (
http://www.electoday.com/bbs/viewthread.php?tid=3543 ), to
program/direct cooler bot.
e) Use cooler bot to program lights display.
f) Utilize lights display to control cooler bot to 'draw' the music
that 64SID should synthesize, say perhaps using a group of propeller
boards ( http://forums.parallax.com/forums/default.aspx?f=25&m=323449&p=1
