Zo House Black Mirror

Why?

Turn any basic TV into a dynamic Zo House “BlackMirror” smart mirror:

  • Display live event schedules, resident art, or house stats

  • Run touch-free interactions, visualizations, or ritual automations

  • Make your node more alive, useful, and infinitely hackable

What You Need

  1. A spare TV (preferably with HDMI and 1080p or higher resolution)

  2. A Raspberry Pi 4.

  3. HDMI cable (to connect TV to your computer)

  4. Internet connection (WiFi or wired)

  5. One-way mirror film

Step-by-Step Setup

1. Mount & Position

  • Mount your TV vertically (portrait) on the wall at eye level, or horizontally for classic use.

  • Plug it into power and connect HDMI to your Raspberry Pi .

2. Prepare the Computer

  • Flash a memory card with Raspberry Pi OS and insert on your pi.

3. Install BlackMirror.duh

  • Clone the Zo House blackmirror.duh repo:

    git clone https://github.com/ZoHouse/blackmirror.duh.git
cd blackmirror.duh
npm install
npm start

  • Or, if there’s a ready-made release, download and launch the package.

4. Add Plugins & Content

  • Edit config files or drag-drop plugins/art in the provided directories (/plugins, /assets, etc.)

5. Add Reflective Film

  • Apply one-way mirror film to the TV screen for true “smart mirror” effect—when the TV is dark, it’s a mirror; when on, digital content glows through

6. Go Live!

  • Your BlackMirror smart mirror now runs—displaying real-time info, art, or whatever you imagine

Tips for a Zo-Worthy Mirror

  • Use vertical (portrait) orientation for that signature “portal” vibe

  • Update content for every event or house ritual—make it living, not static

  • Hack plugins and share with the Zo community
