00:00:06.240 --> 00:00:07.240
&gt;&gt; TOM: Okay. Hello, I'm Tom!

71
00:00:07.240 --> 00:00:07.940
&gt;&gt; JULIEN: I'm Julien.

3
00:00:07.940 --> 00:00:08.870
&gt;&gt; DAN: And I'm Dan.

4
00:00:08.870 --> 00:00:10.360
&gt;&gt; TOM: And this is CharityShock.

5
00:00:10.360 --> 00:00:12.920
And it is, essentially, the virtual version

6
00:00:12.920 --> 00:00:15.240
of a village fete dunking booth.

7
00:00:15.240 --> 00:00:16.360
The easiest way to demonstrate this

8
00:00:16.360 --> 00:00:17.640
is to show you, so, Dan--

9
00:00:17.640 --> 00:00:18.720
&gt;&gt; DAN: Sure.

10
00:00:18.720 --> 00:00:19.920
&gt;&gt; TOM: Do you want to talk us through the hardware?

11
00:00:19.920 --> 00:00:21.920
&gt;&gt; DAN: Sure. I'm just going to apply these internet electrodes

12
00:00:21.920 --> 00:00:23.450
to my glamorous assistant here.

13
00:00:23.450 --> 00:00:25.560
&gt;&gt; JULIEN: So, internet electrodes, why?

14
00:00:25.560 --> 00:00:29.240
Because they're connected to a capacitor

15
00:00:29.240 --> 00:00:30.740
which is connected to a transistor

16
00:00:30.740 --> 00:00:32.240
which is connected to an Arduino board

17
00:00:32.240 --> 00:00:33.440
which is connected to the...

18
00:00:33.440 --> 00:00:35.060
&gt;&gt; CROWD: Internet!

19
00:00:35.060 --> 00:00:36.920
&gt;&gt; JULIEN: Yeah! They're good.

20
00:00:36.920 --> 00:00:38.240
&gt;&gt; TOM: All right. These guys have done

21
00:00:38.240 --> 00:00:39.160
a wonderful job on the hardware.

22
00:00:39.160 --> 00:00:40.240
Can you hit the button?

23
00:00:40.240 --> 00:00:41.840
If you have a gift certificate

24
00:00:41.840 --> 00:00:43.640
that we have given you, now,

25
00:00:43.640 --> 00:00:44.720
go to charityshock.com,

26
00:00:44.720 --> 00:00:46.160
type in your donation ID,

27
00:00:46.160 --> 00:00:48.250
we are live. Are we live, Dan?

28
00:00:48.250 --> 00:00:49.640
We are live -- JESUS!

52
00:00:49.640 --> 00:00:52.080
[laughter]

30
00:00:52.080 --> 00:00:55.200
Er, so, hit the button! Hit the -- er,

31
00:00:55.200 --> 00:00:58.080
Nng! [laughter]

32
00:00:58.080 --> 00:00:59.880
It is based on the JustGiv-ING! APIs,

33
00:00:59.880 --> 00:01:01.080
it is fully functional,

34
00:01:01.080 --> 00:01:04.800
and if you donate a pound, you will be able

35
00:01:04.800 --> 00:00:49.640
to give me a shock -- [yelps]

52
00:00:49.640 --> 00:00:52.080
[laughter]

37
00:01:08.360 --> 00:01:10.080
Currently we are using gift cert-IF!-icates

38
00:01:10.080 --> 00:01:12.680
-- ow! That one really hurt --

39
00:01:12.680 --> 00:01:15.040
We're using gift certificates just because the,

40
00:01:15.040 --> 00:01:17.690
the JustGiving process goes -- TAKES! -- a little while

41
00:01:17.690 --> 00:01:20.160
erm, but, if you, er, if you come to us later

42
00:01:20.160 --> 00:01:22.560
we'll be able to tell you... tell you that.

43
00:01:22.560 --> 00:01:24.960
Possible futures, er, you can hook this up

44
00:01:24.960 --> 00:01:26.760
to more people, you could hook this -- UP! -- 

45
00:01:26.760 --> 00:01:28.180
to more shock locations, so you can choose

46
00:01:28.180 --> 00:01:29.680
where to shock people, you can have an

47
00:01:29.680 --> 00:01:31.360
adjustable voltage based on how much you've paid

48
00:01:31.360 --> 00:01:33.680
You could have celebrities, you could have marathon sessions

49
00:01:33.680 --> 00:01:35.280
You could have a 24-hour video gaming session where

50
00:01:35.280 --> 00:01:36.960
you're hooked up to it.

51
00:01:36.960 --> 00:00:49.640
But here's the -- THING!

52
00:00:49.640 --> 00:00:52.080
[laughter]

53
00:01:40.280 --> 00:01:42.080
It's, um, it's a simple -- PACKAGE --

54
00:01:42.080 --> 00:01:44.080
you can just take anywhere.

55
00:01:44.080 --> 00:01:47.520
Erm, the web site can be charityshock.com/yourname

56
00:01:47.520 --> 00:01:50.160
It's extensible to become a platform

57
00:01:50.160 --> 00:01:52.600
You could use silly string, you could use water guns

58
00:01:52.600 --> 00:01:54.160
You could use dart guns, here's the thing,

59
00:01:54.160 --> 00:01:55.080
here's the important thing.

60
00:01:55.080 --> 00:01:57.480
You can use anything that can be hooked up

61
00:01:57.480 --> 00:01:59.680
-- TO! -- [laughter]

62
00:01:59.680 --> 00:02:02.970
-- an Arduino which - MEANS! - that if you want to

63
00:02:02.970 --> 00:02:06.170
feed bunnies for charity, you can do it with this.

64
00:02:06.170 --> 00:02:08.680
If you want to do interactive art, it's fine.

65
00:02:08.680 --> 00:02:11.280
If you want to launch a fireworks display

66
00:02:11.280 --> 00:02:13.760
and have people donate to set the fireworks off

67
00:02:13.760 --> 00:02:16.320
this platform will make it possible.

68
00:02:16.320 --> 00:02:17.800
Electric shocks might be a cheap gimmick

69
00:02:17.800 --> 00:02:23.200
to get some laughs, but this -- THING! -- actually works.

70
00:02:23.200 --> 00:00:07.240
That's the web site. I'm Tom.

71
00:00:07.240 --> 00:00:07.940
&gt;&gt; JULIEN: I'm Julien.

72
00:02:27.080 --> 00:02:28.000
&gt;&gt; DAN: I'm Dan W.

73
00:02:28.000 --> 00:02:33.080
[cheering and applause]

74
00:02:33.080 --> 00:02:36.440
&gt;&gt; TOM: Ow! Who was that one?

75
00:02:36.440 --> 00:02:40.173
&gt;&gt; DAN: No Tom Scotts were harmed in the making of this.
