  • Hedy Lamarr Achievement Award for “Emerging Leaders in Entertainment Technology”
    HEDY LAMARR ACHIEVEMENT AWARD FOR “EMERGING LEADERS IN ENTERTAINMENT TECHNOLOGY” PRESENTED BY: DEG: THE DIGITAL ENTERTAINMENT GROUP THE HEDY LAMARR ACADEMIC AWARD SCHOLARSHIP OVERVIEW DEG: The Digital Entertainment Group is pleased to announce the annual "Hedy Lamarr Achievement Award for Emerging Leaders in Entertainment Technology," which recognizes female college students in their junior year whose studies in the fields of entertainment and technology have shown exceptional promise. The $10,000 Award will be presented in November 2018, to coincide with the 104th anniversary of Hedy Lamarr's birth. Austrian-American actress Hedy Lamarr was a Hollywood legend who is best known for her roles in a number of film classics including, Samson and Delilah, The Strange Woman, and Tortilla Flat. She was also a lifelong inventor whose innovative work included pioneering "frequency hopping" which became the foundation for spread spectrum technology. Conceived by Lamarr and composer George Antheil for radio guidance systems and patented in 1942, this highly secure technology resists interference and dropout, and is utilized today for a variety of cellular, WiFi and Bluetooth applications. To honor Ms. Lamarr, the scholarship seeks to encourage and enable highly motivated students to pursue opportunities available to them in entertainment technology, be those pursuits academic or professional. The award winner will receive $10,000 as they enter their senior year of undergraduate study. While there are no specific restrictions on the use of this monetary award, we hope and expect that the funds will be used to further the winner’s study or efforts in their recognized area of excellence. In 2017, the DEG awarded a total of $35,000 to three young women: One a Performing Arts Technology major at the University of Michigan, one a in Media Arts and Practice major at the University of Southern California, and one a in Studio Art major with a minor in Arts and Technology at Smith College.

  • Primer on Using an MP3-Recorder for DX-Ing
    PRIMER ON USING AN MP3 RECORDER1 FOR DX-ING Bjarne Mjelde (c) Update, May 2006 Recording DX has come a long way since I started DX-ing in the early 70's. Tape recording was the only possible way in those days; I started off with a cassette player. Not until the late 90's did other media begin to gain ground, such as the Minidisc-recorder. It is still popular with DX-ers, especially after having evolved into the Hi-MD format which permits quick upload to PC's. Recording directly to the PC is also common and programs for that purpose have been evaluated elsewhere. But recording to a PC requires – a PC. Which is not always possible, or desired, for reasons like space, transport/weight, RFI etc. So what about those small gadgets we have seen evolve over the last few years, the MP3 players? Some of them actually have the option of analogue recording through a dedicated line input. The thought of using an MP3 player (or more correctly a player/recorder but I will use the term MP3 player in the following) for DX purposes has matured over some time. About a year ago I decided to buy one and see if it could work. I have been an MP3 shopper since. Recording DX has one vital requirement. The recording device must have the ability to start recording on the fly. No menu-choices, no pre-titleing of file names, no auto-shutdown. And the device needs sufficient capacity for the DX session. Running out of space as DX gets hot is the typical example of a bad setting.
