While walking with the tvhead on for the past few weeks, I've been thinking more about how people can interact with the tv controls in person. There are ways for chat to control it, but how do I give someone in front of me access to the same interaction/play. 

I am working on a way to add a few buttons to control the animations from my website, while still going through the Twitch chatbot API. This will give some amount of chatbot control to people without a twitch account. It's weird but the bot will become a limited way for people in life to interact back with chat, as much as chat can interact through the tv. I'll be playing with how the interaction should play out.  If "offline" people will give suggestions for chat to help with or if they should have direct control like other chat members.

Just wanted to give everyone a note as to the progress and what I am currently working on. 

STREAMING SCHEDULE

Every Friday 6pm est, I'll be streaming and walking in the city! So come on out (online) and control Atltvhead!
