Reminds me of a machine I saw on Tokio's Miraikan: it demonstrates the Internet (TCP/IP) with colored balls, rails, tubes and whatnot. Wonderful post!

- rspeer 10y agoI saw that! Except when I saw it, it was mostly broken, perhaps under the DDoS of children putting too many bits into it too fast. When I saw it, you could send a message from one designated terminal to another, but that's just rolling balls on tracks. In the intended design you could choose which terminal it went to using an 8-bit IP address.
