This one’s for my oldest boy, Ryan - it was his favorite tune from these guys.

*Drawing with 20 000 Volts* will happen tomorrow 10:00 at SVITAVA transmedia art lab in Brno, CZ.
https://svitava.org/udalost/workshop-lotta-stover-drawing-with-20-000-volts/
In this workshop we will sketch, doodle, draw, inscribe, engineer and overall un/determine traces on copper boards for them to become places where high voltage spark gaps can occur.
The introduction for the workshop will consist of a brief (not so objective, and rather poetic) historical account of pre-modern electricity, a rough and incomplete visiting of contemporary electric arts, and an introduction to a self-built high voltage generator, inspired by the 19th century influence machine design. -- The practical part is an invitation to experimental hand drawing of unconventional traces on copper boards. This may take the shape of an alternative dogma of irrational trace routing, a quick doodle, a comic, a piece of electrify-able writing, … whatever you may come up with! By applying the drawings with an etch-resistive marker, in an etching bath we can then selectively remove the unwanted copper. This leaves us with an etched copper version of the inscribed drawing. Lastly, we can start experimenting with applying high voltage sparks to our copper drawings.
Which shapes let the high voltage dis/charge behave in which way? How far can 20 000 Volts „jump“ or arc across copper gaps? What unexpected poetics can we notice – or where are your drawings resonating with how the discharging sparks occur?
A main goal of the workshop is to develop a notion of electric energy that expands beyond mere fuel as „pure exergy“, and instead looks at electricity as a wildly expressive medium and phenomenon in itself.
Thank you so much for the invitation SVITAVA transmedia art lab and Jiří Suchánek :) ! ⚡

Well, stick that in your fuse box … look what turns 50 today …
May 14, 1976 ~ AC/DC release High Voltage in The States. Music critics weren't impressed and took the band to task for taking rock to the basement. Rolling Stone's Billy Altman said rock hit "an all-time low" with its release. Everyone can be wrong now and then -- the album has sold well over 3 million just here in the States. #acdc #highvoltage #70srock #rockmusic #70smusic #music #musicsky #musiciansky…

Working with vintage power today from the early 1990's when my career started. The newer motor drives are a small fraction of this size. Most of the bulk is magnetic chokes and capacitive resistive snubbers filtering the voltage spikes from the semiconductor triacs. The other half of the cabinet, not shown, are even more massive transformer filters. We are documenting why this motor drive has failed increasingly over the last several months. The motor it powers is only 150 horsepower, or about 110 kilowatts.

In #germany we are confronted with a high demand of #green
#energy transports from wind turbines at the coastline to the industrial areas, especially in the southern states bavaria and BW.Now, at least ten years late, after green party got in the recent government, the needed #highvoltage power lines get upgraded.
So i was courious how much energy can transfered over a upgraded 380kV line with 4 wires bundled per phase.
Nordkurier press hat an article about the ostsee-havel powerline north of berlin city, and told the new line will transfer up to 4000amps current after the upgrade.
So one such power line can transfer 1.5GW electrical power.
To relate this: whole country can need up to 64GW power if the industry production goes to full scale.
Private housholds may do only something like 20% of this energy consumption. -

Not sure how I missed this but it totally friggen rocks. This was also my oldest boy’s favorite AC/DC tune.
