Embedded.fm interviews Lenore and Windell from @EMSL @embeddedfm
Embedded.fm Episode 317 features the Evil Mad Scientists Lenore Edman (@1lenore) and Windell Oskay (@oskay).
Evil Mad Scientist Laboratories (@EMSL) produces the disintegrated 555 Timer kit and 741 Op-Amp kit. These were made in conjunction with Eric Schlaepfer, who also created the Monster 6502.
EMSL also makes the Eggbot kit and AxiDraw not-kit (and mini-kit). For a history of the pen plotter, check out Sher Minn’s Plotter People talk on YouTube.

Bonus: here is a vintage shot of the two of them with a young Ladyada and PT
