"You can't help but think about what this machine has done to affect so many lives." And that is really the point. These sculptures are political art at its most powerful - relics of a violent past transformed into expressions of hope for a more peaceful future.

Following up on our previous post about the Pentagon's new Active Denial System (energy beam) and other "non-let hal" weapons, here's a New Scientist feature about the state-of-the-art in ray guns:

"...the $9000 Close Quarters Shock Rifle projects an ionised gas, or plasma, towards the target, producing a conducting channel. It will also interfere with electronic ignition systems and stop vehicles.

'We will be able to fire a stream of electricity like water out of a hose at one or many targets in a single sweep,' claims XADS (Xtreme Alternative Defense Systems) president Peter Bitar."

Amnesty International and other human rights groups are none too thrilled. Link

Guns and jets

Guns and jets 03/08/2004 11:03 PM

My friend Brad, a jet pilot with heroic flying skills, graciously agreed to help me with the Commercial maneuvers and precision landings today.  We hauled N505WT out of its hangar and headed out to Worcester with the GPS turned off and the gyro-stabilized compass covered up.  Flying along at 2500' it was actually a bit tough to pick out landmarks from the VFR chart.  After 10 landings we decided it was time for some of the free cookies that they bake at the Worcester FBO (airplane gas station) so we taxied into the ramp.  The scene was one of utter desolation.  The main terminal building looked empty.  The last scheduled airline flights from Worcester ceased about one year ago.  The general aviation area contained a small collection of cheap piston-powered airplanes (like mine!).  At Bedford, N505WT's home airport, there is always at least $300 million of private jets on the ramp, waiting to take hard-working public corporation executives from golf game to weekend house.  The woman behind the desk confirmed that not a single jet had landed at Worcester all day.

As we were starting up N505WT a good-sized business jet was taxiing in.  A van drove up to meet the passengers at the side of the $10 million twin-turbojet-powered plane.  "What luxury!" we thought.  "This is the only way to travel.  They're probably just back from a resort in Mexico."  A couple of guys got out of the van and walked around the plane wearing guns.  Security for someone important!  The one passenger got out, a teenager wearing a rather plain jumpsuit.  Then we noticed that his legs were chained together...

Yet another thing that America's richest and poorest citizens share:  traveling by private jet.

Oh yes, speaking of guns.  A friend from the MIT Media Lab sent around a home video yesterday.  It seems that he has put the filmmaking skills that he learned there to good use and has made effective use of the Internet in distributing his creation.  Click right on the following link and then "Save Target As" before playing from your own hard disk in a separate player window (100 or 200% size is best): boyhood dream.

Twenty years ago people talked about Arpanet/Internet leading to an explosion in video creativity and distribution but it just wasn't practical with the available bandwidth and percentage of consumers hooked up.  Today all the pieces are in place.

Potato Gun Shoots Through Brick Wall: This video shows a seriously powerful potato gun. When you're shooting projectiles through brick walls, it's time to reconsider whether or not this is a hobby. Reminds me of the home-mad e flamethrower guy.

(And if you think potato guns are just fun and games, ask this guy. A potato gun, a frog, and some bad judgement left him blind.)

LCDs + Guns = Broken LCD

LCDs + Guns = Broken LCD 09/24/2004 07:55 AM

I'm sure when most of you buy a monitor you're thinking, "Sure, it looks great, but can it withstand being pelted with tiny metal plastic balls shot from a gun?" I usually just check the "Gunfire Resistance" rating on the little placard they keep on the shelf, but some people feel like they need to go hands on. Those people also feel like they need to video tape the results, which were, by the way, pretty much what you'd expect.

Shooting for RFID in guns 04/15/2004 05:02 PM
Verichip announced the development of a gun safety system based on radio-frequency identification (RFID) technology. The aim is to prevent a gun from being fired by anyone other than its owner. Here's how it works: A gun is outfitted with an RFID reader. An RFID tag is implanted in the gun owner's hand. Only in the presence of that tag will the handgun allow its trigger to be unlocked.

Press M for Murder: Cell Phones That Kill: Can you program the phone to shoot the owner if it's answered in a movie theater?

Though heavier than normal phones, the lethal ones look nearly identical. The hollowed-out devices, made in Croatia, are fired by punching buttons on the keypad and can shoot four .22-cal. bullets in rapid succession.
