Some shots of the inside of my SVT-HD taken while I was upgrading the fan. Nice green fringing on the white text, huh? Shot with a Sigma 50mm f/1.4 NOT (as I had mistakenly said on a forum) a Sigma 150mm f/2.8 Macro. I was forgot that I'd switched off to the 50mm for a couple of shots and was perplexed by the green fringing from my beloved Sigma 150mm. There was a good reason I seldom see this. ;-)
I've always been annoyed by my SVT because the fan was so loud. Sounds like a jet airplane idling when you turn it on. Which is fine when you're playing, but when I was recording stuff for my movie I just used a direct box because the SVT whooshing away in the background annoyed me a lot, but I didn't want to keep turning it off and then having to rewarm the tubes again. I found an online schematic for the amp and the fan they use is a simple 120mm AC powered (who uses AC powered fans?) fan that moves 65 CFM of air. It's rated at 65 decibels. That's really loud. No wonder it's so annoying.
I found an Orion fan that puts out 75 CFM that's rated at 24 decibels. I found one for $15 at Mouser Electronics and ordered it. It came today and I just opened the case up to replace the old one. Anyway, the short version is that the new fan has more blades, seems to move more air and is WAY quieter than the old one, but I don't think it's 24 db quiet. Companies exaggerate the specs so bad. Still, it's a huge improvement. Goofy little tweak, but it made a nice difference.
In five years, Web Summit has grown from 400 attendees to over 42,000 from more than 134 countries. It’s been called “the best technology conference on the planet”. But we just think it’s different. And that difference works for our attendees, ranging from Fortune 500 companies to the world’s most exciting startups.

Vietnam: Changing Weapons Technology
Changing Weapons Technology
The evolution of U.S. military aircraft has been driven more by the development of accurate weapons than by the size or capability of the aircraft delivering those weapons.
In Korea the use of short-range navigation, a method of using radio frequency transmission to guide B-29s, enabled bombers to locate and attack large targets even in poor weather. The use of increasingly sophisticated “smart” weapons in Vietnam began to achieve results that only huge numbers of “dumb” bombs had in the past. These new precision weapons began to overturn the long-accepted notions that strategic attacks required large bombers carrying massive bomb loads, and that it always entailed high civilian casualties.
Modern precision weapons now provide a variety of options for applying airpower. In the Persian Gulf War of 1991, cruise missiles launched from ships and B-52s, and laser-guided bombs dropped from F-117, A-6s, and other fighters, led the first waves of attacks on Iraq. Effects-based bombardment measured by impact upon the enemy rather than by the type of aircraft delivering the attack – has been enhanced by the development of precision weapons, whether aimed at targets in the air or on the ground.
Artistic Technology Research explores current practices in (new) media art. The project investigates, amongst other things, the question of how aesthetic parameters in new media art react to the fragmentation of media: How does the classic concept of aesthetics transform in the age of hyperlocality? Are aesthetics in works of critical media art changing towards an attention aesthetic or a fragmented aesthetic? In this context the transformation of the concept of aesthetics is explored and the necessity of aesthetic parameters in media art as research-based art is brought into question.
Artistic positions of the network of Artistic Technology Research were presented in context of the exhibition series “Faceless” (still on display until 24.11.2014 in MuseumsQuartier Vienna). Faceless is curated by Bogomir Doringer and Brigitte Felderer (in cooperation with Matthias Tarasiewicz).
