Lorries powered by generator gas is quite common. There is always a guy in the back making sure there is enough wood. Generator gas vehicles were common in the west during WWII when petrol was rationed.

Projection Studio Enchants Wolverhampton
Projection and digital art specialist Ross Ashton of London based The Projection Studio created two spectacular projection works in Wolverhampton, west Midlands UK for the inaugural Wolverhampton Enchanted City event, which attracted up to 8000 people each evening into the city centre
Ashton was commissioned to produce the works by Wolverhampton City Council following his work at the first ever Enchanted City ‘pilot’ event at Horncastle, Lincolnshire earlier in the year. Ashton is developing this unique event concept together with Brighton based Robin Morley of Magnetic Events, who also produced this show.
The giant 15 metre tall images were beamed onto two well-known local landmarks – the 1920s style Barclays Bank building in St Peter’s square, and the Wulfrana Street entrance to the University of Wolverhampton around 100 metres away.
The Oldest Place
This was the title of the Barclays Bank projections in St Peter’s Square, and based on the story of the monastery originally consecrated in 994 on land granted by Lady Wulfrun, which then became St Peter’s Church.
Ashton once again collaborated with sound artist Karen Monid who created a dynamic bespoke soundtrack based on Anglo Saxon poetry about the Garden of Eden which was read by specialist in Old English language that she sourced and recorded.
The images were all inspired by medieval manuscripts together with patterns based on the shape and geometry of the building.
The images were produced using a single Christie Roadster S+20K projector located on top of a specially built tower close to the building, fitted with a 1.2 – 1 short-throw lens.
Content for the three minute loop was played back from a MacBook Pro running Millumin software, which is perfect for single projector shows like this.
Generator
The show at the University entrance – projected onto the imposing 1930s building - was designed to be a complete contrast to the pastoral and reflective tone of St Peter’s Square.
Generator was hi-energy all-action animation based on the flow of ideas, knowledge and energy associated with learning.
Set to a pumping dance track, which turned the atmosphere of the space almost into a joyous public rave, the building/s frontage was transformed into a fantasy-style generator with frantically turning cogs emitting oozing steam and flying sparks, together with random objects flying across the surface representing some of the disciplines taught there.
These included cameras (film), keyboards (music) and even a flying cow (agricultural sciences) all with a colourful spacey background of flying stars and galaxies.
“The idea was to make ‘Generator’ fun and amusing while ‘The Oldest Place’ was thoughtful and tranquil, both of them at the polar opposite end of the ‘spiritual spectrum’, and by their juxtaposition, asking people to explore the natural synergies between these two important locations in their city.” explains Ashton, adding “Effectively it highlights these integral elements of the metropolitan area and presents them in a completely different light”.
An almost identical projection set up was utilised for Generator, except the Christie Roadster was fitted with a .7 lens. This show also ran in three minute loops.
The public reaction was overwhelmingly positive : “I have just experienced one of the most wonderful evenings … Just brilliant” wrote one delighted visitor, while another who was also prompted to visit the art gallery for the first time after many years of living in Wolverhampton enthused, “The St Peter’s Gardens illuminations were amazing” … the thank-you’s and appreciation flooded the City Council’s Email and social media channels for many days afterwards.
Ian Bustin of Wolverhampton City Council said, “We set out to do something different combining fantastic technology and creativity with community performances representing a true festival atmosphere. The projection images and tone completely changed the perception and atmosphere of the city. Children, families and young people reclaimed the city centre as a place to socialise and the festival reawakened a real sense of local pride and ambition.”

The Synthesis Technology E340 Cloud Generator is just about to go into production. We should get modules in the next 4-5 weeks. This should be another unique oscillator amongst several that have been released recently. The price for the module is expected to be $299. LINK: www.synthtech.com/ .
Inside the standby ventilation plant room.
Paddock was built at the start of the 2nd World War below the Post Office Research Station in Dollis Hill. The purpose of the two level citadel was to act as a standby to the Cabinet War Rooms in Whitehall. The bunker became operational in 1940 with the War Cabinet meeting there on 3rd October.
Churchill did not like the new bunker and by the autumn of 1943 the standby cabinet war rooms were relocated to the North Rotunda in Marsham Street, close to Whitehall; Paddock was abandoned the following year.
During the cold war, Paddock was suggested as a replacement for the North London Group War Room at Partingdale Lane, Mill Hill but this was rejected by the GLC. It was also, along with Station Z at Harrow, suggested as the Main Control Centre for the whole of London with the 4 (later 5) Group Controls reporting to it. The idea of 1 central control was never adopted and the upper floor at Paddock was relegated to a Post Office social club.
Following closure of Post Office Research Station, in the mid 1990's the site was sold to a property developer who converted the Research Station into luxury flats with a new housing estate on the rest of the site. The single storey surface building above Paddock was demolished but the citadel, which has local authority listing was untouched and two access points were retained one an unobtrusive steel door in a wall between two houses and the other a brick blockhouse beside the road which also houses a small electricity sub station. The site has now been handed over to a housing association.

A great signal generator that can be had for a very reasonable price. Thousands of these were made and many found their way to Canadian high schools as part of the electronics program. Also available in the Starkit name could be purchased in kit form and assembled by the end user. This is my everyday signal generator.
I am only guessing that this is a generator, and that it would be used to power the pump house in the event of a power failure. View On Black
We were very lucky compared to many people in the rest of the state. We only lost power for 6 days, and I ran a small generator to keep some of the things running in the house, most importantly the internet.
The New York Power Authority's Niagara generator converts the flow of water out of a reservoir into electricity.
Yep, runs the whole house in normal operations. TV, Fridge, coffee pot, computer. Doesn't seem to be a problem running the whole shabang. Needs a housing to hold the noise down and keep it safe from the weather. Should be a bit more livable than lanterns and batteries....
On generator as I upload this !!!...
This is a piece of Kohler equipment on the University of Florida campus, therefore, we can presume it to be a generator 'cause it looks like one and Kohler makes 'em. :)
Assen, ca. 1941 – 1943: Door gebrek aan fossiele brandstoffen reden veel auto's in de Tweede Wereldoorlog op gasgeneratoren gestookt met houtskool. Hier vult een buschauffeur in Assen de generator op een aanhanger achter zijn bus bij. Bron foto: Collectie Drents Archief Assen
Single Cell, HHO Generator. The two outer plates are the Negative/Positive plates, while the 3 inner plates are neutrally isolated from the outer two plates. The plates are made up of TRUE #304 Stainless Steel. I run Citric acid in the Distilled Water to help with conductivity of the water.
