-  * 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. +  * 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
