SAO HackThePlanet

HACK THE PLANET SAO — DEF CON 34 Pure analog mischief, no firmware, no I2C handshake, no apologies. A 555 timer clocks a 10-bit ripple counter, and eight of its outputs drive eight LEDs shining up through holes drilled straight into the "Hack the Planet" graffiti art. See the video link! An onboard trimmer lets you dial the clock anywhere from a lazy heartbeat to a seizure-adjacent strobe. New for DC34: a button that can be shorted to the odd or the even pins of the host badge's SAO header. What happens next depends entirely on what badge you plugged it into and how forgiving its designer was. We make no promises. That's the feature.
