-  * The discussion of and links to clutural/archeo-/ethno-/astronomy got me thinking about a sort of on-demand system that could generate new constellations (possibly based on deep multicultural image databases by feature matching) and ad hoc legends (based on machine learning, something like InferKit (nee Talk to Transformer)) as a strategy to defamiliarize/decolonize the night sky and the stories about it. +  * The discussion of and links to cultural/archeo-/ethno-/astronomy got me thinking about a sort of on-demand system that could generate new constellations (possibly based on deep multicultural image databases by feature matching) and ad hoc lore/legends (based on machine learning, something like InferKit (nee Talk to Transformer)) as a strategy to defamiliarize/decolonize the night sky and the stories about it.

   * Interested in building a single-pixel camera after learning about the Vidicon system on the Luna missions--not sure about conceptual rigor here, but I think it would be a great project. Especially if there was a sound component. Makes me think of Jim Campbell's brilliant //Portrait of a Portrait of Claude Shannon// piece (of course that one has conceptual chops for days). Could be a public-engagement exhibit for the museum?   * Interested in building a single-pixel camera after learning about the Vidicon system on the Luna missions--not sure about conceptual rigor here, but I think it would be a great project.

   * I'm a bit of a mechanical keyboard nerd, and would be interested in working with the Museum of Cosmonautics archive to design/produce a more historically correct keycap set. There was a rash of Apollo-inspired themes for that anniversary recently, and there have been some Soviet-specific sets (Yuri and Vostok) but, as Peter pointed out, they have all been rather fanciful. JTK Vostok: [[https://novelkeys.xyz/products/jtk-vostok-1-gb]] and SA Yuri: [[https://drop.com/buy/drop-t0mb3ry-sa-yuri-custom-keycap-set/details]] for examples.   * I'm a bit of a mechanical keyboard nerd, and would be interested in working with the Museum of Cosmonautics archive to design/produce a more historically correct keycap set.

 +* **From Luke** - Some info on archeoastronomy. Start with this video, looks at connection of different myths and legends with the night sky and 
 +archaeology sites - [[https://johngrigsby.weebly.com/online-lectures.html]]
