A hack of the MIT Media Lab.
A livingroom was installed on the underside of the sculpture attached to the MIT Media Lab (normally it looks like www.media.mit.edu/about/images/e15.jpg ).
The reason why this got binned was that we needed a logo, not an illustration. I've drawn a lot of light bulbs for HackWeek. And chameleons.
Transferring private and important data over the Internet can expose users to
the prying and hacking of ruthless cyber criminals. There is an urgent need for a
comprehensive solution to secure the safe transmission of information from point A to B. This godsend will be the cavalier who fights hackers incessantly, and strives to slay the dragon who has been devouring the most valuable and vulnerable asset of all netizens.

Groups of hackers sit around waiting for the staff to mop up the rain, get the roof to close and let us back in to continue to hack. Anyone got some spare internet connectivity?

The Hack Green Secret Nuclear Bunker is a former government-owned nuclear bunker located at Hack Green, Cheshire, England.
The first military use of the area was in World War II, when a Starfish site was established at Hack Green. Its purpose was to confuse Luftwaffe bombers looking for the vital railway junction at Crewe.
A ground-controlled interception (GCI) radar station was added.
In the 1950s, the site was modernised as part of the ROTOR project. This included the provision of a substantial semi-sunk reinforced concrete bunker or blockhouse (type R6).
The station, officially designated RAF Hack Green, was also known as Mersey Radar. It provided an air traffic control service to military aircraft crossing civil airspace.
The site was abandoned and remained derelict for many years until taken over by the Home Office. The R6 bunker was then rebuilt as a Regional Government Headquarters (RGHQs) - one of a network of 17 such sites throughout the UK - designed to enable the government to continue in the aftermath of a major nuclear attack on the UK.
In about 1992, following the end of the Cold War, the Home Office abandoned its network of RGHQs and sold many of the sites. The Hack Green Bunker was purchased by a private company and subsequently opened to the public in 1998 as a museum with a Cold War theme.
I know, this is like tricking out a Ford Taurus Station Wagon. But hey, sometimes you just gotta work with what ya got. And I got a pair of 3700s. Besides, this flash is 20+ years old. I figured if I killed it doing this that would give me a good excuse to buy a new flash, maybe something built in this century : )
(When I first got into photography I chose these over a 283 because they had the same power, but they also had the 'Interchangeable Dedicated Module. At the time that sounded very impressive. Oh well, live and learn).
After reading all the posts about modding the Vivitar 283's for Variable Power I thought I'd try something similar with a Vivitar 3700 Flash. From what I've read Vivitar does make a Vari-Power Module for these flashes. But I have NEVER seen one on either ebay OR Google.
It was quite simple. I mounted a Closed-Circuit 1/8 Jack (Radio Shack Part # 274-0248) in the 'module'. I spliced it into the two wires going to the sensor on the front. The closed-circuit jack interrupts and re-directs the circuit. (Think about the stereos and boomboxes where the speakers cut out when you plugged the headphones in.) I connected the red wire (which I presumed was the 'hot' wire) to the switched side of the plug.
Then I mounted a 100k pot (Radio Shack Part # 271-0092) in a small Radio Shack Project Box, attacked a length of speaker wire to the pot, attached a 1/8 plug to the other end of the wire. And I now have a removable Vari-Power Control.
With the control unplugged all the settings on the flash work normally. When I plug the control in I get variable power from full power to about 1/64 power (or so it seems with a quick test).
As the jack is wired into the sensor unit on the front of the flash I have to set the flash to one of the 'auto dedicated f-stop' settings on the back. (This module has three of them). Then I can use the control unit and adjust the power from the auto f-stop selected up to full power.
Here are some of the Flash Meter readings I took with a Sekonic L-508 Zoom Master Meter:
(Set Up- Flash and Meter set to 100 ISO. Meter about 5 feet from flash. Flash powered by a Quantum 1+ battery. 10 seconds between flashes. Fired via Cactus V4).
(Try this with your own flash. See exactly how accurate those 'Auto' settings are)
With the Control Unplugged
Flash - - - Meter
Setting - Reading
F/2 - - - - - F/2
F/4 - - - - - F/2.8
F/8 - - - - - F/4
Full
Power - - F/16
1/16
Power - - F/4
With the control plugged in and the flash set to the auto F/2 setting:
Dial all the way left - - F/2
Dial all the way right - - F/16
At various settings in between I got the expected range of power somewhat consistent with where the dial was set. Just over half way I got F/11. So all the lower stops (F/2.8 - 8) were in the first 1/2 turn of the dial. I haven't taken the time to pinpoint where on the dial each stop was yet..
I repeated the tests with a piece of black tape over the sensor just to make sure it was not active with the control plugged in. With the control unplugged and the flash set for F/2 I would get a full power flash if I covered the sensor. With the control plugged in it made no difference if the sensor was covered or not.
I would presume this would work with just about any flash. If you decide to try it I offer no guarantees on your flash if it dies when you do this.

The Hack 4000 is a vehicle composed out of other fighters that have been plundered by the relentless space pirates.Space pirates? Space pirates! I don't know where this came from, but it might be a bit different. I haven't put a cock pit in yet but there is room, and there is also an unfinished storage area out back, where I would put all the lego gold. A fig to go with this would also be ideal.
The lighting and backgrounds leave something to be desired, need different colors, or textures, or diffusers, or something. Better pics will come if I can work it out. Let me know what you think - I can take it.
