Evil Mad Scientist Laboratories - How to make the simplest elect We’re pleased to announce the availability of the Egg-Bot Electro-Kistka: An electric hot wax pen designed to be used with the EggBot. A kistka is the wax tool used in the traditional wax-resist and dye (batik) method to produce colorful eggs in the same fashion as Ukranian pysanky. We would like to acknowledge that this is not by any means the first time that anyone has strapped a kistka to an EggBot— We wrote about Ann’s DIY version a few months ago, and we’ve seen other versions (both manually heated and electric) in YouTube videos dating back several years. Hardware The Electro-Kistka consists of two main parts, connected by a cable: A heater assembly that gets mounted to the EggBot’s pen arm (in place of the usual pen holder), and a power control board that sits behind the EggBot. The power control board is relatively simple: it accepts input from a plug-in power supply, and has an adjustment pot so that you can set the power level of the kistka. Process: two-tone
How can songwriters make money on YouTube? | Media In my last Plugged in blogpost I explored how record labels are making money from their official videos on YouTube and Vevo. So far, however, songwriters (including myself) have received next to no money from their collection societies, despite getting millions (in some cases hundreds of millions) of views. This is not only unfair, but unsustainable. Collection societies such as BMI and ASCAP have blanket licences with Google-owned YouTube, which currently only pays royalties of about $40 per million streams, according to recent royalty statements. But songwriters may be missing out on YouTube ad revenue that they can rightly claim, including from user-generated content (UGC). This licence is granted directly by songwriters and publishers. Hence, songwriters or their publishers have to "claim" their songs. Different companies also pay differently, says Jay Frank, owner and chief executive of Nashville-based label/publisher DigSin.
