Abstract

An old CRT monitor repurposed into a desk display. Shows the current time, weather, and custom messages through a minimal terminal interface. Built using Arduino and controlled through a local web server.

The Architecture of Nostalgia

Built around a salvaged display pulled from obscurity, everything outputs in classic terminal style.

No touchscreens, no fancy graphics - just phosphorescent characters burning against a black screen. It sits on a desk, quietly keeping you informed while reminding you that maybe we didn't need to reinvent everything.
