At South by Southwest in Austin, Texas, on Saturday night, hundreds of attendees turned out for Dorkbot, a celebration of makers and electronic geekery that takes place in cities around the world. Its motto is "People doing strange things with electricity."
Among the projects on display was Arc Attack, an Austin group that has rigged tesla coils to a DJ system, making it possible for the electricity shooting out of the tesla coil to be timed to the beats of the music.
