Tales from the Auxiliary

The Evil Mad Science Auxiliary is a public group on Flickr for anyone to add photos that are (at least marginally) related to posts and projects from Evil Mad Scientist Laboratories. Lately some fantastic photos and projects have shown up in the group, so we thought that we should stop and round up a few-- not all-- of the great things that we've seen there. The photos below were taken by their respective owners; click on the individual photos to get the full story.

Adam Greig has been having fun with AlphaPOV. (Results here.)


Francesco (Flickr user fdecomite) made this amazing army of BristleBots, photographed with the help of his spiffy LED ring light. He even made some excellent videos of the little guys in action.

Steve Lodefink has been busy building up this set of electronics for an extra-spiffy handlheld blaster. Based on 555 and 4017 chips, it has some elements in common with our little cylon circuit. I can't wait to see what it looks like when it's done!

	Channon (Flickr user plik the geek) is building up one of our interactive LED kits. He also decorated his office printer with an overly honest label. (Coincidentally, we also did this to our own office printer.)
Speaking of interactive LED kits, A Oli Wood contributed this fabulous time exposure of his completed circuit.
So... If you've got pictures or projects that were in some way inspired by our projects, we would as always love to see them in the Auxiliary. And to everyone who has contributed, thanks for your cool pictures!
