Come join us at the DMY Maker Lab!
9-13 June 2010
DMY Festival
Tempelhof Airport, Berlin

The DMY Maker Lab will be a celebration of Open Design through practice, presentations, and collaborative action, created by instigators and participants alike.

The DMY Maker Lab is an emergent event, enabled by Jay Cousins, Gabriel Shalom, Michelle Thorne, Pedro Pineda, and Luis Berríos-Negrón. Initiated by numerous members of the Berlin Open Design community and sponsored by DMY, Etsy and Becks, and ultimately created in collaboration with you!

At the Maker Lab, we'll be hosting various stations for participants to learn, play and build upon the design of others. With an array of processes, technologies and tools such as 3D printers, laser cutters, bio plastics, Arduino, analog motion graphics, weaving, knitting, and other do-it-yourself technologies, participants will learn and create together.

At the center of the event is a Mindscape, a discussion cluster featuring workshops, sessions, and conversations about open design. Most of all, we welcome you to stop by and share your thoughts, even plan a session spontaneously using our open space format. Topics could include new collaboration methods, the future of open design, business models, as well as sharing skills on specific design processes.

In addition we will be encouraging everyone who participates to engage in the documentation process, either by helping to build and transform an evolving monument, or by contributing digitally as an immediator; posting photos to our flickr group ( http://www.flickr.com/groups/dmymakerlab ) and/or sending tweets using the #dmymakerlab tag.

From this point of inspiration along with instructions, demonstrations and workshops, we invite you to engage with the space, tools, processes and people. To create together, participating in our numerous activities, or even instigating your own.

We would be thrilled if you would like stop by, lead a discussion, or share a skill, run a workshop, or begin a collaborative project at the Maker Lab. Please contact Pedro pedro_pb (at) live (dot) com or Michelle michelle (at) creativecommons (dot) org to schedule a time and topic or to attend one of the specific workshops.

Plasma Speaker - Audio Modulated Solid State Tesla Coil



Florian Maier
1204 Plays

Overview and demonstration of my plasma speaker setup. It is an audio modulated solid state tesla coil. The RF is generated with a Class-E MOSFET stage with adjustable frequency.
The sound is modulated on the gate signal of the MOSFET via PWM. The sound is then emitted by the arc itself. Excitation and PWM frequencies are set with DDS generators controlled via a microcontroller board with USB interface. The sound comes directly from the soundcard of the PC. All the hardware and the software is (c) by me ;-)

Landing: Success and Failure



Raphael Pirker
1601 Plays

The first year of video-flights is over. Time to reminisce about some of the successful and less-successful landings with this clip.

Landing is the most "dangerous" part of my setup as the camera is taped to the bottom of the glider. This makes normal landings - at least without high risk of damaging the camera equipment - impossible. That's why the glider needs to be caught in mid air. Not always easy, but I'll let the video tell the story... enjoy.

Damon Vander Lind built this propeller powered bike with some friends - and it worked really well! The chain drive is routed from the petals, under the seat, then up to the propeller rotating 90 degrees.
