FieldStation42 is an on the air (OTA) television simulator, showing several “channels” of classic programming complete with commercials inserted. Videos are served with a Raspberry Pi which uses Python.
“I started this project after noting how my enthusiasm and interest in television had changed over time. With a million streaming options, why was I bored with it all? Something feels heartless about it all and it made me wonder if the experience of TV had been better when I was a kid in the late 1970’s and 80s.”
“I decided to try and recreate the experience I had with TV back in the day. While my personal experiment focuses on my own experience in the late 70’s and early 80s, the hardware/software described in this project can easily extend to any era of OTA broadcast television.”
