Last week, me and a friend (André Duarte) presented an #art #instalation for the #processing Community Day Coimbra 2021. (@pcdcoimbra)

It's titled TAU-800B.

We put a ton of thought and ideas into it, so I'll be going over them here!

🧵
But first, TL;DR:

TAU-800B approaches the theme of Anachronism in many ways, some literal and some figurative. It is a full emulation of a time traveling computer, that despite having that ability and sporting a retrofuturistic interface, obeys computing paradigms of the 70s.
These strange internals (6 bit words, 6 word stack, assembly only) are fully exposed for the viewer that takes a closer look. Keeping with the 70s theme, there's also a complete reference manual next to the screen, providing further hints on the nature of the artifact.
