Retro Reboot is an exhibit for the exhibition Data Spaces in our university. It allows visitors to create their own punch stripes. The punch stripes are scanned and interpreted to perform a calculation, to generate an image or to play some music.
The image generation simply puts the holes on to a grid and runs Conways Game of Life on them. The music is created by interpreting the punch stripe as a drum machine and playing a sample file whenever a hole is present.
