Bringing chaos to the #39C3: the Lorentz attractor with a #THAT #AnalogComputer displayd on #Vectrex.

Meet me and some #RetroComputing #hackers at the #VintageComputing assembly on this years #39C3 in Hamburg!

We will present some historcial running machines #AnalogSynthesizer patching, #AnalogComputer tinkering (with a #Vectrex as an #oscilloscope), and #BASIC #CodeGolf and #RetroGame workshops!

In april I exchanged my #THAT #AnalogComputer for a Leybold-Heraeus teaching analog computer from the 1980s. Then I found out anabrid had sold-out THAT. I spoke to Bernd Ulmann (from anabrid) and he did not know if there would be another batch of THAT computers. This sunday he anounced a new batch, I ordered a THAT and a few moments ago it arrived!

OH: Für mich sind alle Töne gleicherechtigt.

In Bonn there is a stall with vintage and used books. For 5 Euros I just bought a #math text book from 1968 that contains a chapter on #AnalogComputer #mathematics and programming:

Meine Session zum Thema #AnalogComputing startet um 18:30 Uhr im Raum IHK Bonn/Rhein-Sieg. Kommt in Scharen! Es geht um die Zukunft! 😉 #bcbn25 #Barcamp #Bonn #Analogcomputer #anabrid #TheAnalogThing #nerdkram
The power supply of my new Leybold-Heraeus #AnalogComputer needs some technical attention: it only provides -1.46 and +5.4 Volts (instead of -10 & +10). So this 3-phase generator (from the manual) won't work ...

There she is:

#AnalogComputer @vcfe

Today I'm going to #Munich for the @vcfe where I'm exhibiting early #Atari home computers, giving a lecture on the #GOTO controversy and holding an editor-editorial meeting about the next volumes in the #ComputerArchaeology book series. As the icing on the cake, swap (my) #THAT analog computer for a Leyboldt-Haraeus #AnalogComputer.
