the smell of wood.
Just going to leave us hanging as to what this plug board is?
Good pun. (It's for telephones)
Thought the switches were chess boards for a moment and was really confused what kind of insane apparatus was built for them
From the old office days where men were men... and women were computers.
Literally. Pushing pencil on paper, doing calculations all day, was the most common office position for women back then, and the job title was Computer.
What is them?
Where is this? What is this?
Beautiful desk and equipment!
You seem like the type who might appreciate these photos.
Fantastic! As soon as I saw the first photo I thought "what a wonderful play room!" and also I want to play in all the rest too. :)
Barcelona, Spain. The building is owned by a telephony operating company. I understand that this is an old control to manually switch phone calls
Oh, hey, I'm going there in October! What's the building called?
It is a Telefonica building located in Plaza Artós. I do not know what they will do with this beauty, since these days they are working emptying the entire plant that was occupied with copper installation. These weeks in Spain are finalizing the definitive elimination of copper lines, in favor of optic fiber
Well I'll keep it in mind. Thanks!
Oh cool, you work by the Path of Elixe launch servers.
