Blog in repair modus..
After my web server crashed little was saved from this blog. Soon I will be fixing the blog. For now most photo’s will be missing here…
Well, here’s one!
Multiple Pi Server
After a major server crash of my web and e-mail server I decided to make a Multiple PI Server. One reason is to save some energy though still using my own physical server(s). The second reason was to learn more about the different flavors of low costs mini computers.
The following parts are used:
– small power supply and a print board to extract the 5 volt supply
– Raspberry PI as webserver for http://a-bort.org, with SSD via USB
– Orange Pi as backup server, with SSD via USB
– Banana Pi with build in SATA support for email server, SSD via SATA (not included yet in photo)
– a 5 port ethernet switch
Old blog and Mixing Cities
Found back my old blog on WayBackMachine.
There I was still developing Mixing Cities…
Also blog posts from Eye of the Spy, which just recently got a sort of “version 2” as Videobot. And can now be seen in the WORM foyer, generally when there are events or when the Wunderbar is open.

Videobot
Coming Wednesday I will present a new work at WORM.
Videobot is an unusual robot. It does its best to look at you, to follow and move along with you. While moving around, it tries to see who is in front of it. As participant you can help Videobot follow you, so squeaking and beeping, it can get to know you.
Videobot will be opened by Ilya Koppe!
Wednesday, Januari 13th, at 17 hours, Stichting WORM, Boomgaartssraat 71, Rotterdam
Looking back
Eye of the Spy was graduation piece at the Interfaculty ArtScience back in 2005.
Currently I’m building Videobot, which is sort off the second version of Eye of the Spy. The opening will be at WORM on the 6th of January 2016, 17 hrs!
audio track HangUp
This audio piece was made for the RadioVoicemail-project. Between the 12th and the 19th of August one could listen to this track by dialing +31 (0)6 1973 6048.
The track was constructed by using the rotary dial of an old phone, dialing the phone number 06-19736048 numerous times.
