Galaksija and Računari u VAšoj kućI: 40th Anniversary Celebration
The 40th anniversary of the Galaksija is getting celebrated in a truly special way: Dejan Ristanović and Voja Antonić, the duo behind the original project, have teamed up once again to celebrate both the Galaksija computer and the publication that made it possible, by releasing beautiful reproductions of both!
Dejan and the team recreated the whole thing from scratch, including taking new photographs of Galaksija assembly and tracking down images originally published in American and British computer magazines which were reproduced back in the 1980s by simply copying them (intellectual property law did not really exist in Yugoslavia). In the countless hours I’ve spent researching the history of the Galaksija, I almost exclusively stared at a screen, looking at PDFs, even after I was fortunate enough to obtain the original first issue of Računari u vašoj kući. For anyone interested in the intersection of analog video and digital logic, the article Voja wrote about Galaksija 2024 is a fantastic resource, written with the same wittiness and easy to understand language of his original instructions 40 years ago.
