Video Kiosk and a cover


Move-Me.com Posted by Picasa

A year or so ago I had this idea of setting up a camera at an anime con with a sign saying something to the effect of, "Show us your talent!" And more or less just keep the cameras rolling and record everything that gets in front of the camera. Then take the most entertaining parts and show 'em at HELL.

Yeah, I really hadn't put a lot of thought into it. But now I'm thinking I could build a sort of Photo Booth Kiosk to contain the camera and lighting and microphones and recording bits. It would create a more controled environment and protect the equipment, making it possible to run a full 24 hour day. I could even add a terminal so people could enter in their personal information and and sign off on a EULA for the filmed content.

I need to draw it all out and maybe do some fabrication. I need to build it before I can use it.

And I've really got to get that server up this weekend, too. 50 days 'til my 40th Birthday...

1k Project II


I really wanna know how they did this...

Building a Tingler

drawbot

The other day Randy Stewart mentioned that The Tingler would be playing at a local theater. And then this Drawbot shows up the next day on the Makezine Blog. So I'm thinking I need to work out a cheap version of The Tingler for the HELLshow.

The easy part: tape a 9 volt battery to an electric motor with an offset weight attached. The hard part: How do I turn the 'tingler' on from across the room? How do I attach the 'tingler' to the seats? I'll need some sort of container to hold the 'tingler' and attach to chairs. I wonder if there's some sort of cheap rf switch I could use, I really don't want to run wires around the room. Too much of a hassle. Then again rigging multiple seats with tinglers will be something of a hassle. I guess it depends on how badly I wanna play William Castle.

I should start small and just rig up a few chairs in the house. Test it all out...
