DEFCON 17 Badge
The DEFCON 17 Badge was created for the 2009 edition of DEFCON, the largest and oldest continuously running hacker and computer security convention in the world. The badge uses active electronics, features an artistic circuit board, and provides an open design to allow attendees to experiment with and modify the badge to their liking. [ continue ]
Circuit Board Artwork
The Circuit Board Artwork pieces were created during a series of experiments in precision circuit board fabrication using a T-Tech Quick Circuit 5000 Prototyping System. The original drawings were processed and routed onto single- or double-sided copper clad 0.062 inch FR4 with milling bits ranging in width from 0.010-inch to 0.031-inch. Sizes of the pieces vary from 1 inch by 4 inches up to 5 1/2 by 7 1/2 inches. Rights to all artwork are controlled by their respective owners. [ continue ]
BSODomizer / BSODomizer HD
The BSODomizer is a man-in-the-middle device that connects between a target computer and monitor. It intercepts the legitimate video signal and replaces it with a fake BSOD (Blue Screen of Death) or other user-defined image at a pre-configured time interval or when triggered by an infrared remote control. The BSODomizer can automatically detect when the target computer is turned off or restarted, in which case it will revert to the harmless video pass-through mode leaving the user unaware of any wrongdoing.

DEFCON 16 Badge
The DEFCON 16 Badge was created for the 2008 edition of DEFCON, the largest and oldest continuously running hacker and computer security convention in the world. The badge uses active electronics, an artistically-designed circuit board, and provides intentionally “open” circuitry to allow attendees to experiment with and modify the badge to their liking.
