One lightning talk I missed earlier, an ambitious attempt to reverse-engineer the Partner-N64, a rare Nintendo 64 development and debugging card. A seriously challenging project for retro-hardware fans 🎮🧠

Jon Somerscales and Andrew Stone closed the evening with Phycologica - a mesmerising exploration of art, biology and light. Their interactive installation uses living bioluminescent algae that glow in response to movement. Beautiful and strange in equal measure.

John Honiball never disappoints. This time he brought vintage avometers and a desktop calculator. Proper retro electronics! ⚡

Russel Cooper shared his adventure building a 7¼-inch gauge railway kart - pieced together from a scrap skateboard, hoverboards parts, and plenty of ingenuity. 🚂⚙️
