big ideas & adding machines…

I’m knee deep in stacks of papers with visions of numbers & colored files dancing in my head today. Ah, tax time…gotta love it. It may be a little quiet in klt:sketchbook land in the next few days. But I will leave you with this really cool video that my friend Daria sent me a link to. She always has a way of knowing what my mood is. This sort of summed it up for me. It’s pretty genius (it’s slow to start so be patient… something more will happen). Thanks D- it’s very cool indeed!  {images via here, here, here, & here}

Office supply stores here I come! Maybe by the end of the day I will be able to make some music like that with my calculator, printer, & file cabinet….

    I love the adding machines above!!! Addometer? :)) What a name! I had a pretty good wooden abacus when I was little – I still consider it the best aid to learn the basics of math πŸ™‚
    I knew you'll love the video, it's pretty amazing πŸ™‚ I got all emotional hearing the sound of the ZX loading from the cassette, my first computer was a ZX 80 (still have it)
