Whats that noise? It’s our donation box! This year at Defcon, we participated in the first ever Mohawk-con donation box challenge. Starting a few conferences ago, the Mohawks have been giving mohawks to Defcon participants and in return they ask that you donate to your favorite charity. This year in addition to the EFF and Hackers for Charity, you could donate to your favorite participating non-profit hackerspace! Our donation box featured a laser light beam across the top slot that was connected to an Arduino and triggered a call tone on a FRS radio whenever someone made a donation. We also had some cool tunes playing through the speaker and a colorful light show. The box was a success, we won first place and raised $580! Â All of which went to pay our Coned bill. Â Thank you to the Mohawks!
