Repurpose


A documentary film by Tom Smith (AKA Jack Oatmon twitter.com ). A look into the hardware hacking community in Montreal, including the Foulab collective. Why are more and more hobbyists experimenting with hacks and circuit bends? What relationship does this imply about consumer society and technological advancement? Is this a real-world analog of ‘user generated content’? Check out the lab: foulab.org Check out more music by XC3N: www.last.fm

    hi, my father is an electronic engineer here in Brazil
    he uses a very old domestic plotter, that has an arm with a little pen. He made an adaptor to put those pens that writes in CDs in the plotter, and the plotter draws directly on sheets of cooper, and then he burns the circuit.
    He can make several protothypes whith that
