In times of global warming and high energy cost, many wish for taking part in the energy revolution. House owners can mount a photovoltaic system on their roof, balcony owners can hang solar panels from the handrails. However, almost half of the German population lives in flats without balconies. Until now it has not been possible for them to independently produce solar power. This product concept is a proposed solution to fill this large market niche. To the delight of renters, the building stock is not or barely modified in the process. A telescopic rod is clamped into a window embrasure to hang up a common photovoltaic panel. The electricity is carried to an inverter in the flat using a flat conductor under the window.

I'm living in a flat without balcony on the second floor. I'm not allowed to modify the building stock, like drilling holes into exterior walls. Nonetheless, I want to use solar energy to cover the base load of my flat. Over the last couple months I developed a DIY solution to accomplish just that. A solar panel is clamped into a window embrasure with a telescopic rod. The power is carried through the window into my flat with a special flat conductor.

This is a work in progress, so please visit the project documentation at https://hackaday.io/project/192011-window-mount-for-solar-panels if you are interested.

Contemporary War Art II depicts a freeze frame from the camera feed of an attack drone. It is presented in a representative picture frame, inspired by those used for framing war paintings in the first half of the 20th century. The piece explores the nature and purpose of war art, particularly in an age of robotic and remote warfare. The image of the missile hit was taken in a simulator, blurring the boundary between reality and virtuality further.

Ni28 is an electronic guitar that can be played effortlessly. The instrument is a standard MIDI controller that controls electronic instruments and software via USB. Instead of strings and frets, the neck holds a matrix of brass plates. Two adjacent elements can be bridged with a finger, closing a circuit, which generates the appropriate note.

Contemporary War Art I is an animated rendering of an attack drone. The animation is projected onto a representative picture frame, inspired by those used for framing war paintings in the first half of the 20th century.
The piece explores the nature and purpose of war art, particularly in an age of robotic and remote warfare. The sensor pod of the drone containing cameras and laser markers sweeps through the exhibition space, making every onlooker seem to be a potential target. Contemporary War Art I, 2022

Rendering, 4K projection, dimensions variable, frame with aspect ratio of 5:3 required.

This project began as an attempt to produce a genuine military painting. After not being happy with the results, I resorted to rendering the subject instead from the comfort of my office chair - like a drone pilot.

MULTIPLE INDEPENDENTLY TARGETABLE REENTRY VEHICLE (MIRV) MIRV replicates the trails of multiple independently targetable reentry vehicles, nuclear warheads that are released by a single ballistic missile, during their final moments of existence. The warheads spread over a wider area after separation from their launch vehicle to maximize their destructive effect, resulting a geometric arrangement that is reproduced by the installation.

Hi! Your render of prop-m is great, the best I've seen in the internet. Is there any chance that you will release this image under creative commons? Wikipedia's prop-m article needs image, as previous photo would be deleted soon. If you want your render to be seen by more people, please upload it on commons. Thanks a lot!

Thanks, I've uploaded some of my renders under creative commons here, feel free to include them anywhere if you think they would be helpful

„For the Prevention of Nuclear Annihilation“ is a fictional Soviet medal never awarded to Stanislav Yevgrafovich Petrov, whose prudence during a nuclear false alarm incident in 1983 probably prevented a third world war. As a lieutenant colonel in the Soviet Air Defence Forces, he rightly considered it a computer error when an early warning satellite signaled the alleged launch of American intercontinental missiles.
 Petrov was neither awarded nor penalized for not initializing a retaliation strike.

EMOPAT is a military camouflage pattern generator based on Emoji. It is inspired by other digital camouflage designs that combine various sizes of camouflage patterns to improve their effect over a range of distances.

EMOPAT processes previously prepared pixelated patterns by randomly assigning emoji to every pixel that matches their color values with adjustable tolerance. By replacing solid color fills with random emoji patterns, EMOPAT designs might actually work better at close range than non-Emoji-based counterparts.

I just improved my Augmented Ouija Board. In times of the omnipresent digital alter ego, more than a decendent’s empty shell is left behind in this world. If wished for or not explicitly prevented, their social media profiles remain unchanged. They keep projecting the same virtual representation of the deceased user as they did during their lifetime.
