What I Did Over My Winter Vacation

Occasionally, I get asked to do interesting projects for various publications. Recently, I've been doing some DIY endeavors for IEEE Spectrum, the monthly magazine of (yes, you guessed it) the IEEE.

My most recent project (where recent means I finished it before the New Year, gotta love lead times on print publications) is an HD LCD Projector built out of a 15" LCD display, some lenses, a powerful lamp and more lumber than I care to think about. For the curious, here's a link to the article, complete with pretty pictures.
