My DIY project over the Covid Containment has been putting together this Brezhnev Fone:
It is (almost) ready to be moved back to its new home, the desk of the Director of the School of Slavonic and East European Studies at UCL, who happens to be my spouse. It can't (yet) get Leonid Ilyich on the line but it can talk with the Google assistant via a raspberry pi and Google voice kit lodged inside. It provided an entertaining reintroduction to the wonderful world of simple electronics and a chance to learn a tiny bit of python. Gory details are available here.
