Nice! I can now edit #gnuplot files in #VSCode and immediately when saving with ⌘S – I’m a Mac – I see the result right beneath it in #VisualStudioCode. 
– In case someone’s interested I’m happy to explain how to set this up. #visualization
By the way: The data visualized here was created with my #AnalogComputer „THAT“ from #anabrid. 
Lorenz Attractor on my „THAT“ #AnalogComputer.

Mission accomplished! 
Ziel war es, den THAT (#Analogcomputer “THe Analog Thing” von anabrid) sauber, reversibel und jederzeit wieder schnell anstöpselbar mit einem Flachbandkabel über den HYBRID Port mit einem #Arduino (MEGA) zu verbinden. #HybridComputing Sketch dazu hier: https://github.com/anabrid/hardware/tree/main/the-analog-thing/arduino_2650_hybrid_controller
Excellent! My little hybrid computing setup works fine now. An #Arduino controls the THAT („THe Analog Thing“ by anabrid) via its Hybrid port and reads out the solution of the differential equation for a damped oscillation. The data is then visualized via gnuplot on my Mac. Thanks to Prof. Bernd Ulmann for the Arduino sketch at https://github.com/anabrid/hardware/tree/main/the-analog-thing/arduino_2650_hybrid_controller

A #THAT #AnalogComputer with a chaotic patch (Lorentz Attractor) and a sine wave generator making sounds. (From yesterday's VCC in Berlin):
I am very looking forward to tonights "VCC" (Vintage Computing Circle) at the HU #MediaStudies: We will use all their #AnalogComputer machines to transform them into #Analog #Synthesizer|s.
I will give an introductory talk about analog computers, their history, theory, and how to program them.
If you like to attend:
Starting 5pm (open end), Georgenstraße 47, 10117 Berlin, 2nd Floor, Room 2.26 "Signallabor"
While scanning my #AnalogComputer and analog #electronics books I found a heirloom from Friedrich #Kittler:
#AnalogComputer: Integrating with the help of a rotating (time) disc:
Preparing a talk on #programming an #AnalogComputer - using the wonderful #THAT from anabrid and my #Vectrex that has been modified to provide an additional #oscilloscope mode.
Preparing for a talk on #AnalogComputer #programming for the "Universität der Bundeswehr" in Munich ...
Preparing some THAT #AnalogComputer patches for next week's seminar on German Computing ...
Found in a thrift store. Hard to believe that people used to use this actual thing to do actual calculations to fly actual planes. #SlideRule #AnalogComputer #aviation
@t3hh in 2022, i managed to get this analog computer. Very cool to mix with modular synths. Amazingly, it worked perfectly, thanks to the testing and detective work of the manufacturer
inspired by kirigami (origami, only you’re allowed to make cuts), a mechanical computer:
https://interestingengineering.com/innovation/mechanical-computer-polymer-blocks
being analog, it allows more states than you’d expect from thinking in binary.
the description in this article sounds more like a memory than a processor, though, at least on first reading.
setup sounds ideal for Makers, though — eminently 3d printable
