    Its still so gratifying to see this place being so successful after years of seeing you talk about wanting to make it happen. You should be exceptionally proud of what you and those that help you have accomplished here. honestly how you keep fitting more into this space is inspiring. :)

    For the instruments and synths etc with loads of knobs, it could be useful to set them up so they're doing something decent, then take a pic of all the knobs as a baseline state and put a print out above the machine with a note for visitors, something like "If this machine isn't working very well, try these knob positions to get started" ?

    7:00 it might be a good idea to have some laminated patch cheat sheets next to the synths: Can't hear anything - try this setup to reset!

    Me and my husband had a ball there a couple of weeks ago. We were there for 2-3 hours and still didn't try everything! And Ramsgate is a lovely little town. It's a bit off the beaten track for visitors from America, but not hard to get to and well worth the trip. Thank you for putting together such a cool hands-on technology museum!

    Loved my last visit! Look forward to seeing the museum grow and evolve. When I was there a hole was being actively cut into the wall to the left of the sink xD looks like that's wrapped up now. Once you expand into that final amount of space being discussed recently, is that it? Or does the building go any further back or to the right at all?

    Couldn't tell if that was a Clavioline, or a Solovox in that cabinet above the synths due to the LEDs ! If you ever find another one of these, please let us know - we have a Hammond we'd like to fit either to.

    Looks amazing. All the work you've put in over the years is paying off in this great space. When you say you're expanding the Organ Room, is that going to require you to dismantle the pipes you worked so hard to get setup and working or are those walls staying as they are and you're expanding where the Teletubby wall is?

  • @xliquidflames

    Love it! It looks so fun! I am, however, going to be that guy… I saw one fire extinguisher in the walk through. With as much electronics and motors as there is in there I’d be very worried about fire. Is there a suppression system built into the museum? I absolutely love the semi-controlled chaos and jumbled nature of the place. Would be magical for a kid to explore. Alas, it doesn’t look as though I would be able to get in there with my walker very well. When you expand please keep wheelchairs and other mobility issues in mind. I am very happy this exists as it is, would be even better with more space.

  • @xliquidflames
    @xliquidflames 23 дні тому

    What is your take on people who might get upset that a piece of vintage hardware has been modified instead of restored and preserved? Honestly, when I see all those original Game Boys on the wall, I kind of feel that. But then I look at what you've done with them and that feeling goes away immediately. But there are people who would be absolutely against it. They think something like that should be restored back to its original working order and if it can't be, it should be used for parts to restore another one. Have you had anyone react that way and what do you say to them?

  • @SullenSecret

    • @goldenghostinc
      @goldenghostinc 23 дні тому +3

      Yes, but isn't this museum also very much about wonderment and discovery? And that is what it really does for children. I can only imagine how their eyes light up going through this and turning all the knobs. As a parent I would happily pay extra for that to help paying for the upkeep. Heck, if there was a donate button on the website I think I would push it even though I'm most likely never going to get the chance to visit.
