The Lone Phone – NCM

A collaboration project with the team at Grumpy Sailor this spooky installation was a main feature at the National Communications Museum (Hawthorn Victoria). We used an old Telstra payphone as the main feature of this interactive experience. The LCD screen in the phone plays Realtime video animations and drives a 200+px Array of APA102 LEDs in the roof of the phone. The inside is driven by a Raspberry Pi 5 and controls the Pharos DMX driver and 10 Vaya tubes via OSC. Code and docs can be found here https://github.com/NCMuseum/Lone-Phone
