If any of the Living Computers folks are paying attention to this thread: you guys should set up an exhibit on phone phreaking. Blue boxes (and other boxen) should be easy to build, and it'd probably be easy to obtain historical boxes too. You could dial into Project MF [0] or set up your own vulnerable phone network to tinker with.

- dwyerm 10y agoI did ask one of the great docents there to explain blue boxing to me. He pulled out an blue suitcase-like box and showed me how it all worked. For what it is worth, they can't do the 2600 line seize there, but they could patch directly into a trunk and send tones from there.
