With a new site and an article in Wired the funky creator of the thingie known as Tv B gone supports open source hardware and it's not afraid to make some mayhem once in a while.

Interviewed yesterday by Wired he confessed "The way I see it, it's only fair," Altman says of his infrared light-emitting device. "If a TV shines light at me, I'll shine a light at it. And if it stops shining light at me, I'll stop shining light at it."

Nice article. Simple, yet such a powerful device. I really like that he has helped a fellow hackerspace. Let me take this moment to spam and say that I run www.harfordhackerspace.org located in the Baltimmore/Harford MD area.
