Never before have I watched #ElectroMagneticField recordings. This weekend will change that, thanks to Lee V!

Honestly, hat off to Sam for making it work in a week. I didn’t believe he’d do it when he said that was his plan. However, he is going to be just Look Mum to me from now on as he clearly has a computer! 😂

Here is me, pictured after having moved it the first time. I spent over 3 hours with Jem Finer taking it – one wheely trolley at a time – down five floors in a lift and jamming it into a slightly too small van

Before EMF, I had the pleasure of meeting artist Jem Finer and collecting his gigantic marble-run artwork Supercomputer. We put it in a tent as a participatory experiment. I expected we'd give it away in bits at the end as nobody could store it.

Excitingly, Look Mum No Computer came to the festival and asked if he could take the whole thing! I spoke to Jem and he seemed cool with that, so this is the result:

The #strowger #phoneExchange is in the van, and headed to #emfcamp #emf2024

My #strowger #PhoneExchange installation for #emf2024 is as fully working as it’s going to get… so out come the packing crates!

I’ve got 48hrs to pack it all up before the van arrives…

Packing Progress:
🟩🟩🟩🟨⬜️⬜️⬜️⬜️⬜️⬜️ 29%

I've made another video about getting the #strowger #TelephoneExchange ready for me to take it to #emf2024

In this episode, I try and get the tie lines working...

Oh, and what's that? There's now a website with more information about the #phoneExchange and a blog and everything?

https://emf.lpbk.net/blog/posts/2024-05-05/

The site is a work in progress, and will change a /lot/ in the run up to the event.

RSS feeds are on the todo list, but I've got a phone exchange to fix first!

If I’m going to run a #stowger #telephoneExchange at #emf2024 I need to be able to connect phones to it…

#emf #telephone #phone #phoneExchange #electroMechanical

I’ve now done two of those RJ21s (terminated by hand with a screwdriver) then terminated on the 5 krone strips at the top of this boxconn, then the 4 x RJ45 sockets are terminated on the bottom 2 strips.

Two of the RJ45s will go to a Cisco 1760 fitted with 4-FXO/4-FXS ports, that will connect to the rest of the phones at #emf2024

The other two RJ45s will go to 8 demo #phones for people to play with!

One step closer to having the #strowger #phoneExchange ready to go camping!

I’ve decided on my Easter weekend project… I need to swap the position of two #phoneExchange cabinets in my shed, so I can set up the one I’m taking to #emf2024 as though it’s installed on-site

I’ve measured, it’s possible… but involves moving about 15 heavy crates full of GPO relays, 7U of network equipment, 2 #strowger exchanges, an #isdx PABX, several reels of cable and other miscellaneous stuff I’ve forgotten about!

Perhaps this needs to be a time lapse video of some kind
