Black Room
__NOTOC__ A black room is part of a communication center (e.g. a post office) used by state officials to conduct clandestine interception and surveillance of communications. Typically, all letters or communications pass through the black room before being passed to the recipient. This practice had been in vogue since the establishment of postal and telegraph services, and was frequently used in France by the ministers of Louis XVIII and his followers as the ''cabinet noir'' (French for "black room"). In modern American network operations centers, optical splitters divert a percentage of the laser light from all incoming and outgoing fiber-optic cables to the secret room. An example is Room 641A in the SBC Communications building in San Francisco. The term ''black room'' or ''black chamber'' has also been used to refer to any place or organisation dedicated to code-breaking.

Dark Room (sexuality)
A dark room or darkroom – also known as a backroom, blackroom, or playroom – is a room, typically at a nightclub, sex club, bathhouse, or adult bookstore, where patrons of the business can engage in relatively discreet sexual activity. Dark rooms usually have little or no lighting, possibly incorporating blacklights or dim, colored lighting to establish an atmosphere of twilight and secrecy. Bars Dark rooms were common features of North American gay bars and clubs in the 1960s and 1970s, and can still be found in some bars. A backroom in a gay bar is typically a small, very dark or dimly lit room at the back of the club where customers can go to have sex, usually without undressing. Until the 1980s, backrooms were common in gay bars, and the sex that took place in them was typically unprotected and anonymous.

The Black Room (1982 Film)
The Black Room is a 1982 American horror film directed by Elly Kenner and written and co-directed by Norman Thaddeus Vane. It stars Stephen Knight, Cassandra Gava, Jimmy Stathis and Clara Perryman, and features Christopher McDonald and Linnea Quigley in small, early roles. The plot concerns siblings who lure swingers to their Hollywood mansion, kill them, then - with long scenes of blood transfusions - drain their blood. Though there is no classical vampirism in the film—in the sense of supernatural beings or blood drinking—the plot's focus on draining blood to prolong life has led to many sources considering it a vampire film.John L.

''The Black Room'' is an unfinished studio album recorded by the Justified Ancients of Mu Mu ( Bill Drummond and Jimmy Cauty), intended to be the follow-up to their KLF album ''The White Room''. History ''The Black Room'' was referred to in interviews even before ''The White Room'' was released. Originally it was planned to be hardcore techno (in the style of and featuring the original version of "It's Grim Up North"), then electro-metal (like "America: What Time Is Love?") and finally it was to be a thrash-metal collaboration with Extreme Noise Terror. It is unknown how much of each incarnation was complete before it was scrapped and recording was restarted. Jimmy Cauty said of it in December 1990: "The 'Black Room' album will all be this kind of electro turbo metal. It's not really industrial like, say, Throbbing Gristle, because it's coming from house and has an uplifting vibe about it. But it's so heavy it will just pin you to the floor."
