Quote :

"Two minutes after taking a five-second hit from a vaporizer, Josh felt the effects of the ear wax marijuana rushing over him. "I felt like I was gonna die," the 17-year-old recalled. "The movie we were watching started to look 3-D. I kept seeing lights." What the others in the group Josh was with had failed to tell him when they offered the drug to him, was that ear wax marijuana can include up to 90 percent THC."

Quote :

"The effects of the drug didn't end with Josh's arrest. The ear wax was so intense that Josh's high lasted three days, all of which he spent in juvenile hall."

Hash, it most certainly, is not

Quote :

"The concentrate can look like an oil, paste, wax, honey, shiny piece of glass or a powder, depending on how it is being made, according to the DEA. It has been found stashed in emptied-out tubes of lip balm or metal tins and can be smoked in e-cigarettes without even giving off a marijuana-like smell. The concentrate often is referred to as 710, which is backward for oil, and it is called shatter because in some forms it will literally shatter if dropped. A gram-size quantity - the weight of a Sweet'N Low packet - goes for $60 to $100, according to the DEA, compared with an entire ounce of marijuana going for an average of about $250. YouTube videos DEA Special Agent Matthew Barden, who is based in Washington, said the drug can bring on LSD-like hallucinatory trips. He notes that some people who use or make it aren't shy about putting their faces in front of the world. "Go to YouTube right now for kids that are smoking wax and you can sit there and laugh all day or cry and hope you don't see your kids there," he said. On the Web are a range of people talking about the composite. There are those in places where it is legal who discuss what they contend are well-tested, safe and stable manners to make versions of the concentrate to users who fill the screen with smoke, pound their chests, and appear to be temporarily unable to talk. "All right folks, you'll have to excuse the quality of the video because my lens is foggy," one man says in a video posted on YouTube of apparent wax smokers. "It is all fogged up from the deluge, but our friend from Boston is dabbing out.""

The article bronco linked specifically mentions making it with butane.

If I had made something like that in the past, we theoretically would have called it hash oil.

^ Your quote even calls it shatter. It's hash oil. It's not new by any stretch of the imagination.
