(30 minutes).
Here's a list of the submitted 5 minute talks. If you want to give a lightning talk, please just show up with a laptop and we'll do what we can to let you show what you've been working on. The woodgas adventure Did you know you can run an engine on wood? Starting with plans from FEMA and wanting to stay one step of the zombie apocalypse, this talk will describe the adventures of creating a practical wood gas generator out of stuff you can find at your local hardware store and use only commonly available hand tools. We will be building from scratch v3 of this woodgas generator design at Toorcamp.

Franklin Hu
Franklin Hu is a mid mannered software engineer by day, but by night becomes a mad scientist fighting scientific dogma where ever it may occur. He loves to tinker and build, creating practical inventions which are simpler and less expensive than anything else out there. Hello Darkness, My Old Friend Most of us live in parts of the world that are inundated with light pollution (excessive light sources). It affects natural ecosystems, our sleep cycles, and our view of the night sky. This talk will briefly go over why it happens, what the effects are, and offer ways we can mitigate this (both for ourselves and more broadly). For extra effect, maybe ToorCamp will go dark for a few hours, then we can all look up and see what we've been missing.

I'm the founder of Peruse.io, we're creating AI that replies to your emails. Growing up, I've always liked to take things apart to see how they work, and even sometimes successfully put them back together. I like to dabble in new technologies and computer security. I'm currently training for my tenth half-marathon and looking forward to my second ToorCamp.
