"Wozniak's Conundrum", an electric/steam powered interactive mixed-medium assemblage, is the grafting of a c.1980's Apple Macintosh computer to a 1897 Remington Standard Model 7 Typewriter into a working computer. A Morse code telegraph key has been converted into a working mouse and a 56K dial-up external modem made from telephone parts are used for on-line operations.
"Wozniak's Conundrum" operates on the Mac OS 7.5 operating system and can perform applications such as word processing, spreadsheets, mathematical calculations, data bases, flight simulator, play games like "Tetris" and more.
Some of the typewriter mechanical controls have been converted to computer keyboard commands to escape, option, control, "apple", caps locks and return since there are only 43 keys. Few of the keys have been changed to @, delete, the # 0, and other characters that would be useful for computer functions. |

Check Out: Website | FacebokSince 1998 Pro-Bone-O, a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, has provided
free veterinary services to the pets of people who are homeless in the
Lane County area.
Pro-Bone-O provides veterinary care, food and supplies through clinics
held the 2nd and 4th Sunday of most months throughout the year. The
clinics are held in donated space at St. Vincent de Paul’s Richard W.
Lindholm Center, 450 Hwy. 99, Eugene, Oregon.
Our goals are simple and straight-forward:
1. Improve the health and well-being of pets of people who are homeless and cannot afford veterinary care,
2. Prevent birth of litters through education and by offering financial assistance for spaying and neutering,
3. Stop the spread of infectious diseases and parasites in the community, and
4. Encourage and foster the human-animal bond. |
