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:
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.
Für das #BCBN25 am 17. Mai habe ich eine Session zum Thema #AnalogComputing eingereicht. Vielleicht interessierts ja den einen oder die andere, warum eine Technik, die nach alt und verstaubt klingt, möglicherweise die Zukunft in sich birgt. Stichworte: K.I. und Energieverbrauch! 😉 Ich bringe auch einen #AnalogComputer zum Anfassen mit, den „THAT“ („THe Analog Thing“) von #anabrid. #10JahreBCBN #Barcamp #BarcampBonn #Bonn #HybridComputing #Arduino
Nice! I can now edit #gnuplot files in #VSCode and immediately when saving with ⌘S – I’m a Mac – I see the result right beneath it in #VisualStudioCode. 😊 – In case someone’s interested I’m happy to explain how to set this up. #visualization
By the way: The data visualized here was created with my #AnalogComputer „THAT“ from #anabrid. 😎
Lorenz Attractor on my „THAT“ #AnalogComputer. 🤩🤓 #LorenzAttractor #Oscilloscope #Rigol #electronics #AnalogComputing #anabrid #TheAnalogThing
Mission accomplished! ✅ Ziel war es, den THAT (#Analogcomputer “THe Analog Thing” von anabrid) sauber, reversibel und jederzeit wieder schnell anstöpselbar mit einem Flachbandkabel über den HYBRID Port mit einem #Arduino (MEGA) zu verbinden. #HybridComputing Sketch dazu hier: https://github.com/anabrid/hardware/tree/main/the-analog-thing/arduino_2650_hybrid_controller
Excellent! My little hybrid computing setup works fine now. 🤩 An #Arduino controls the THAT („THe Analog Thing“ by anabrid) via its Hybrid port and reads out the solution of the differential equation for a damped oscillation. The data is then visualized via gnuplot on my Mac. Thanks to Prof. Bernd Ulmann for the Arduino sketch at https://github.com/anabrid/hardware/tree/main/the-analog-thing/arduino_2650_hybrid_controller 😍🙏

A #THAT #AnalogComputer with a chaotic patch (Lorentz Attractor) and a sine wave generator making sounds. (From yesterday's VCC in Berlin):
I am very looking forward to tonights "VCC" (Vintage Computing Circle) at the HU #MediaStudies: We will use all their #AnalogComputer machines to transform them into #Analog #Synthesizer|s.
I will give an introductory talk about analog computers, their history, theory, and how to program them.
If you like to attend:
Starting 5pm (open end), Georgenstraße 47, 10117 Berlin, 2nd Floor, Room 2.26 "Signallabor"
While scanning my #AnalogComputer and analog #electronics books I found a heirloom from Friedrich #Kittler:
#AnalogComputer: Integrating with the help of a rotating (time) disc:
#AnalogComputer: adding with ropes.
Preparing a talk on #programming an #AnalogComputer - using the wonderful #THAT from anabrid and my #Vectrex that has been modified to provide an additional #oscilloscope mode.
Preparing for a talk on #AnalogComputer #programming for the "Universität der Bundeswehr" in Munich ...
Anyone for tennis?
Preparing some THAT #AnalogComputer patches for next week's seminar on German Computing ...
Found in a thrift store. Hard to believe that people used to use this actual thing to do actual calculations to fly actual planes. #SlideRule #AnalogComputer #aviation
