Yet a discarded object. Why? Because it is green?

Please see: Not On The Wall.

Yet some discarded artefacts. A multi-paper connecting/assembling device also know as a stapler and a circular in-line four hole cutting ditto, for paper that is, know as a paper hole punch machine. And drawing material; larger sized papers. Thrown away as in the trash.

This shiny thingy above? It was not actually discarded as much as it was found; in a cupboard; it is a two-cup** manual (!) coffee/espresso maker.

* It did not contain any staples when I found it, it was empty. However, it so happens that my father left me a box of 26/6 standard staples.

** They come in different sizes… this one is smaller.

Yet some discarded artefacts. A pre-IoT image capturing device also know as a camera and a pair of:

Salt and pepper shakers or salt and pepper pots, of which the first item is normally called a salt cellar in British English,[1] are condiment dispensers used in Western culture that are designed to allow diners to distribute grains of edible salt and ground peppercorns.

Ref. Salt and pepper shakers.

Yet an discarded artefact. It is pre-IoT (Internet of Things); a mechanical electric timer. It is in perfect working condition (tested).

Please see: Not On The Wall.

Yet, more discarded artefacts. For being a Dehringer® eight (8) channel mixer and seemingly in working order (it started just fine and all the LED:s and gauges seems to be in working order). Status? as new/unused.

Ultra-flexible 8-channel Splitter/Mixer Model MX882 Dehringer® 19" rack mounted salvage from the trash. The little brother/sister is here.

The little brother/sister.

Behringer® Eurorack UB802 Ultra Low-Noise Design 8-Input 2-Bus Mixer

Missing XLR-cabels. And, yes my Icon 1 speakers are sounding as they should. After all these years. Sound/culture for you! Dier Mono-culture… Electro is eternal.

Please see: Not On The Wall.

Yet an discarded artefact. For being a reference temperature gauge it seems to be working fine (it went to the blue on the dial after a while in the freezer). Status? as new/unused. Please search for: Not On The Wall.

Yet, more discarded artefacts. The old toaster needed replacing so it was perfect timing and this one it is much prettier looking. Status? New/unused. Please search for: Not On The Wall.

Yet more discarded artefacts. Please search for: On The Wall.

It is yet another discarded artefact. Please see: Not On The Wall I and Not On The Wall II or search for “On The Wall”.

It is a restoration project – it does need a cleaning, but more interestingly is that someone used this very item not long ago. Why? Because it is functioning and is running on dry batteries.

Yet, it s from the late 50’s or the early 60’s. Investigation is pending, it’s an AM/FM radio and one thing is apparent… I need a larger antenna, much larger antenna.

I think I may actually be one to something here for once… why? Randomness is harder to find than most or anybody probably would assume, that being said, true (mathematical) randomness is even more elusive (I will damn probability for an eternity!).

Yet another idea may have been born. There’s a signal on the AM band; timed three long and three short ( —… ), surely it must be Morse code? It is a continuous transmission around the clock (24 hrs a day) as far as I know.

But, what is it? Is a radio beacon or a lonely satellite? I don’t know. I will find out, I rather like it together with the random static.

Machine is singing. Three long and three short ( —… ) means “:”? The signal is there and it is well received.

It is the same discarded instrument. Please see: Not On The Wall I, On The Wall, On The Wall I, On The Wall II.
