Local #Seattle artist Light Guerrilla projected “TAX THE RICH” on the side of Mark #Zuckerberg 's stupid boat while it was docked in Lake Union. The boat is now anchored in the middle of Elliott Bay several miles away.

@MHowell This "club" that the rich are in, that the rest of us (thankfully) are not, is absolutely braindead.

"Duuuurh I gotta go buy big boat and airplane so pedophiles will like me."

Fucking mindless shitstains. All dead inside.

@MHowell I’m genuinely interested in where one would find a projector to do this sort of thing.
@OGJester @MHowell laser based projectors these days are quite cheap and bright. Something for basic text of that size, you could probably spend a couple grand. If you just want to put it on a building, say 10m or so, you can usually use a smaller one that's only a few hundred dollars. The secret is all in the lumen and throw distance. When the tech was coming out i was throwing an idea around of building sacrificial rigs with a raspi, battery and projector to project onto buildings.
@OGJester @MHowell glad someone with the actual drive ran with the idea.
@OGJester @MHowell for small projectors any electronics store should have them. If they sell tvs they will usually sell the cheap laser projectors. For something with more punch you will need to contact a av hire company or supplier. My recommendation is christie if you have money to splurge otherwise panasonic (though they have closed their projection wing) NEVER USE BARCO.

@ahhhhhhhhhhh
For this type of stencil-like projections you don't even have to get into “dynamic” projectors.

You can amplify this by getting a unregulated Chinese flashlight. Just make your stencil out of thick steel plate.

Solar Powered Light-Graffiti Projector

Solar Powered Light-Graffiti Projector: I recently read this interesting article in Wired magazine about "Light-Graffiti Hackers". The Problem with light-graffities is that you need a power source to make them permanent, so you usually can't put them everywhere you like. So I thought abou…

@dzwiedziu @OGJester @MHowell ahh we are going oooold school. Ye olde gobo.
@dzwiedziu
...Why does it look like a Martian Tripod & should i be scared? 😳
@ahhhhhhhhhhh @OGJester @MHowell

@MHowell

needs more powerful beamer then

@utf_7 @MHowell or just borrow a kayak or random boat. Fucks haven't been able to buy up Elliot bay just yet, and its right off the coast of Seattle. Lots of folks with boats around.
@liquidlamp @utf_7 @MHowell Seems like a good workaround, but not clear to me if the projector could be stabilized enough in a small boat. Maybe on a drone?

@MHowell

I would love to see someone develop a laser etching machine that works at a distance. You know, so we could etch swastikas into Cybertrucks or "Eat the rich" into yachts from 100 yards away.

@Perrin42 @MHowell

Great minds think alike 🤣

@MHowell Even if I was super rich I wouldn't want such a boat. Maybe a Hallberg-Rassy around 40 foot though 🙂
@MHowell I don't know. I do understand why some celebrities end up having their own gym and movie theatre at home because they can't go out unnoticed. But I don't know you would want a boat the size of a ferry 🙂
@MHowell Where's a torpedo when you need one?
@MHowell wow, that really is a stupid yacht. What a tool
@kingtor
What makes it stupid?

@MHowell
> The boat is now anchored in the middle of Elliott Bay several miles away.

That is still in the range of a drone with a turd payload.

@MHowell sounds like it works. Keep their filthy riches out of the public sight
@MHowell fk the projection, just take the boat
@gusseting @MHowell or do the unthinkable: uninstall WhatsApp and Instagram
@neotheluddite @MHowell
IG is so bloody hard when you're a creative. I refuse to post, but will get there, and bite the bullet to leave...
@gusseting @MHowell also I can't believe there is such a publication and how many yachts are destroyed by fire! collecting insurance or collective ensuence

@MHowell

Use lasers for longer distances.

@MHowell@kolekhese Clowns could do more with the Money they PILFER from our Country.
@MHowell
"Tax the rich"
or
"X the rich"?
@MHowell
I am pretty sure that there is an emotional angle that we all understand regarding those who take more than their fair share.

@MHowell someone should do the same on the #Antibe's or #Monaco's ports.
