Looking to borrow weird machinery/devices for video shoot

[chillguru.livejournal.com]

Dear people who have weird stuff. We are shooting a video this weekend that is set in an evil laboratory, so we're looking to dress the set with anything we can find that looks vaguely sciencey or techy. Think any kind of object that has dials, buttons, meters, screens, cables, switches etc. Old A/V gear, old computers, etc can work for this. This stuff does not actually have to work or be in good shape. If you have anything that fits the bill and would be willing to let us borrow it for the weekend, please comment here or email Brandy@bostoncircusguild.com  Additionally, we're also looking for actual lab ware, ie strange glass ware, Bunsen burners, stands, etc. Again, does not have to be functional. All things will only be borrowed temporarily, well taken care of, and dutifully returned. Thanks in advance!

You might want to ping SCUL and the folks at Artisan's Asylum.

exactly what I was going to say, too.

This guy makes the coolest lighting--I see him at festivals a lot but haven't had the free cash to buy one.

Some of it uses old lab equipment. I think they are so great. Maybe see if he'd loan some for the publicity? But I have no connection here, just love these pieces.

say, isn't that the store that used to be on Mass. Ave. across from Day St?
