ISO/IEC 10646 celebrates grids as encoders of transferable intelligence. It is a paean to the grid's universal interactions which, as intimated by Turing's revolutionary thesis, culminates in the proposition that *that universality* may be used to reconstruct all human knowledge.

While Charles and Ray Eames are famed for their design work, and for me also their very memorable Powers of Ten film - which blew my mind when I was a child, I also really love their construction toys. House of Cards was first produced in 1952. Each card came with six notches to allow for some serious construction work.

There are many things to like about Sophie Smallhorn's work - the play with volume, scale and colour, as well as the forensic crispness. But I also enjoy the fact that they remind me of generative space-filling works and algorithmic physics simulations. They imply movement. 👁↓👁 https://sophiesmallhorn.co.uk/

Triadex Muse, 1972 This was a proto-generative sequencer/synthesiser 'a note generator is controlled by a long term, quasi-periodic function which is in turn generated by applying digital feedback' - quoted from the patent for the device, which I discovered was invented by none other than Edward Fredkin and Marvin L Minsky! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aN5L3kmzTFE

I have a soft spot for vintage mid-century modern construction toys. The best ones don't veer too far off the art object track. Magnet Master was designed by Arthur A. and Reno J. Carrara and was sponsored by the Walker Art Center, 1948

The PBC design for the The KIM-1, short for Keyboard Input Monitor. It was a small 6502-based single-board computer developed and produced by MOS Technology, Inc (later Commodore Semiconductor Group) and launched in 1976. The system eventually ran Tiny BASIC, before that programming was done in Assembly language.
