I develop fun interactive experiences and creative tools. I tweet about Apple IIs, Classic Macs, and other old computers.

Controlling a 3D Printer from an Apple II. A new video all about how I connected my #3Dprinter to my #appleii and wrote a little program to control it. For fun, but also so I could forge some plotter art. #plottertwitter

Here's the slightly edited full sequence from the tape

I just completed an important space history video restoration project, there's an often shared video showing a Mac Portable ejecting a floppy disk in zero G, but it's painfully low quality, so I found a better source and cleaned it up.

In today's loot from the USA the #8BitBunkerScanning Project has a copy of the 1978 "#Apple II Reference Manual". Enjoy this hodge-podge of reference material in glorious 600dpi.

Today we have preserved a cancelled Quake port for the GBA! It was originally being developed by @RandalLinden. If that name rings a bell, Linden is a veteran game developer best known for the creation of the BLEEM emulator as well as the groundbreaking SNES port of Doom!

Hey friends - we've open sourced the code to 1995's Microsoft 3D Movie Maker https://t.co/h4mYSKRrjK Thanks to @jeffwilcox and the Microsoft OSS office as well our friends in legal and those who continue to put up with me being a nudzh. Thanks to @foone for the idea! Enjoy.

@frogmut I tried to contact you via your website but the email did not send unfortunately. Here's a picture of what I wrote:

@frogmut I am doing an in-depth research project on the design of the Apple IIc. I have already spoken to Rob Gemmell, and it would be great if I could speak to you too. If you could direct message me, I can explain more. Thanks, I hope to hear from you.

Awesome thread, wish we had shows like this in Melbourne!

[Max @MaxPiantoni]

@the_jongleur These will be a fun read!

[Max @MaxPiantoni]

An afternoon faking Nakes. These Nakes wont fake themselves. Somebody’s got to do it! #AppleII #plottertwitter

[Max @MaxPiantoni]

@10rdBeen Cheers!

[Max @MaxPiantoni]

@10rdBeen I'm looking forward to reading this, is there a way to get notified when it's out?

[Max @MaxPiantoni]

@eisnerguy1 Hi, thanks for asking! My mind wandered on from GB Cam Studio to other projects. I may put it out in some form in the future, but it’s not something I’m working on right now. It is close to done, but needs some finishing touches before I can release it…
