I figure some people here will find this interesting. Cool pictures from now. A couple archival videos from 2012. Also, this is happening at the United State Library of Congress.

The following is a guest post by Andrew Northrop of the Slade School of Fine Art at University College London (UCL).

In March 2024, the Library of Congress’s Buchla 100 synthesizer was restored through a project between the Library’s Music Division, technician Andrew Northrop from Slade School of Fine Art/UCL, the MEMS Project (Chip Flynn & Mark Milanovich) and the Nova Labs makerspace in Fairfax, Virginia. This blog by Andrew Northrop provides an overview of the repair.
