"Eine Diskette ist ein magnetischer Datenträger, der zur Datenspeicherung verwendet wird. Sie besteht aus einer flexiblen Kunststoffscheibe – daher die englische Bezeichnung „floppy disk“ oder kurz „Floppy“, was deutsch ungefähr mit „wabbelige Scheibe“ zu übersetzen wäre. Diese Scheibe ist mit einem magnetisierbaren Material, meistens Eisenoxid, beschichtet. Zum Schutz ist sie meistens in einem Kunststoffgehäuse (früher Pappe) verpackt, das je nach Diskettentyp entweder ebenfalls biegsam oder starr ist.
Im Unterschied zu Festplatten schleift der Schreib-/Lesekopf bei Disketten direkt auf der beschichteten magnetisierbaren Oberfläche, was mit der Zeit zu deutlichem Abrieb führt und die dauerhafte Verwendbarkeit von Disketten stark einschränkt.
Außerdem schleift auch die Magnetscheibe direkt an der umgebenden, fest im Laufwerk liegenden Hülle. Daher wird diese Hülle auf der Innenseite mit Teflon-beschichtetem (oder ähnlichem) Gewebe ausgestattet, um die Reibung zu minimieren." Quelle und weitere Informationen: Wikipedia: Diskette

dopo aver aperto l'hard disk per distruggerlo, la sua armonica costruzione mi ha colpito, non ho potuto resistere dal fare alcuni scatti.

I had the afternoon off today, and I decided that it's high time that I go through all my old floppies and get rid of 'em. After all, I no longer have a computer that has a floppy drive or a zip drive. So, I went through them all and I've pulled off everything onto my jump drive.
I was actually surprised to find that none of my zip disks had the click of death. I was however sad to discover that I probably have 4 or 5 Mac formatted discs, and I'm thinking that the last time that Apple made a computer with a floppy drive was 1999?

Featuring my graduated disk beads. I forgot how gratifying it can be to finish a project in only half an hour!
The first serial produced car from Brno, marketed as a "open torpedo for four persons". The engine is original, interesting is the friction gearbox with coupled clutch/gear shift control.

New burner from our city's first train king - Disk One. Beautiful styles with dedication to all time, all city legend Fuzz One.
Polymer clay with the anodized glitter kit - the one on the right has been buffed with baking paper to smooth the glitter in, but you really can't tell from the photo - the colours are MUCH brighter IRL, too.

Th name comes from the little window in the disk shaped volumes. It is reminiscent of a picture I once saw of a hermitage somewhere.
This is how my hard disk drives are arranged, after this picture was taken, I added a new hard disk drive to the arrangement.
Playing with the in-camera creative settings (this one is "expressive"). Yesterday in SF. I hadn't seen this manhole cover before. Love the "Made in Mexico."
The front disc of a Kawasaki 250 Ninja
Taken with the stock kit lens with a x10 multiplier filter on the front of the lens, with a flashlight as the light source.
"What's that?!" Was a question posed to me a few years ago when my Son saw an Vinyl LP for the first time.
I explained that there was a small concentric groove on the surface of the disk, the needle of the record player responds to the vibrations caused by the bumps in the groove to produce sound.
He understood. There is a whole generation who haven't a clue what these items are.
Here discarded and unwanted LP records are being used for creative purposes. The record is spun in a human powered device which started life as an exercise bike, then paint is introduced.
The nearest record to the camera is labelled: Eurythmics - Greatest Hits, Side 1.

Archiving my very 1st teenage steps with the Atari 800XL in the form of a folder full of code, sketches & references (all created between 1988-1991)... I started with writing pure hex code, then taught myself the 6502 flavour of Assembler (only learned Z80 before) but then got more & more into game design, icons & demo scene activities (as coder, gfx and chiptunes & co-organizer) and started building several tools & games (incl. The Brundles, a commercial Lemmings clone for the 8-bit Atari in '93)

These abalone disk earrings coordinate with my Treasure On My Chest necklace. These are so lightweight, I often forget I have them on.
Discovered at work today: a dual-sided CD in a huge plastic case (seriously -- it fit in my hand, but my fingers didn't have a lot of reach to spare). Apparently, you were supposed to slide it into a receptacle in the computer, and the metal door would slide open. Bizarre.
We no longer have a reader for this thing, and the files on it were extraneous anyway, so I had great fun disassembling it and playing with its components.
