When in doubt make props


One thing I really believe is that true "playing around" usually ends up being productive. A couple of years ago, when Maria was in and out of the hospital I built some circuit-bent instruments to take a breather from things. What I learned from that activity evolved into prop design. Here's an initial layout of what the portable Memex device might look like. The screen is surplus from C & H. The keys are scrapbooking decoration from Michael's. I have big clunkier, typewriter-looking ones but I'm having a hard time making them fit.
