For anyone who's not familiar, "this guy" is Chris Budiselic of Clickspring, who's mentioned as an inspiration for this research:
> In 2020, new X-ray images of one of the mechanism’s rings, known as the calendar ring, revealed fresh details of regularly spaced holes that sit beneath the ring. Since the ring was broken and incomplete, however, it wasn’t clear how just how many holes were there originally. Initial analysis by Antikythera researcher Chris Budiselic and colleagues suggested it was likely somewhere between 347 and 367.
- eichin 2y agoNot merely inspiration, but https://bhi.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/BHI-Antikythera-Mechanism-Evidence-of-a-Lunar-Calendar.pdf https://bhi.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/BHI-Antikythera... is Budiselic et. al.'s paper on the hole count. (It's kind of a big deal to fans because he stopped putting out youtube videos to get the paper ready for publication - where we learned that this was far more than a machining-technique obsession, and that the "British Horological Institute" was a real thing :-)
