The creator's main target has been Berlin's Checkpoint Charlie, the Cold War crossing point between East and West, where thousands of tourists photograph the sign that reads, "You are now leaving the American sector." When the Fulgurator is in action, pictures of the sign are defaced with graffiti that comment on what von Bismarck sees as the connection between the violence that took place at the Berlin Wall and that on today's U.S.-Mexico border. The Fulgurator is used "primarily to mess with tourists," says John Brownlee of Boing Boing. "It rankles, somehow." So it must be successful!
This gadget is not available on the market, but the maker doesn't shy away from providing other mischievous photographers the blueprints. If you already have a digital camera, all you need is a light sensor, a flash, and some time.
