The Octave Cat was manufactured between the late seventies and early eighties. It is an all Analog Syntesizer. It is somewhere between the better known Mini-Moog and the similar Arp Odysey. Both DeVo and OMD allegedly used them in the day. Arp went to court against the Octave. Octave later adopted the name Voyetra.

This series of photos was taken at the Octave Chanute Aerospace Museum in Rantoul, Illinois. I chose to take pictures of fragments of the planes because trying to fit an entire plane into the frame of a camera is pretty hard, especially within the confines of a crowded hangar.
The museum was wonderful! It is housed in what used to be the Chanute Air Force base, which was operational from 1917 to 1993. There are over 40 planes there, as well as numerous flight simulators (nonfunctional, but still cool to see), an exhibit highlighting the 99th Pursuit Squadron (the first active unit of the Tuskegee Airmen), and four Minuteman ICBM maintenance training silos. In fact, until its decommission in 1993, the Air Force used Chanute for all of its Minuteman missile maintenance training. There was a lot of other stuff that I'm forgetting, but if you get a chance, go visit, it's absolutely worth your time.

Remark: The Port of Indiana-Burns Harbor was founded in 1965 along the southern shore of Lake Michigan, approximately at the junction of Indiana State Road 249 and U.S. Route 12. The port is embraced by two municipalities - Portage and Burns Harbor, Indiana, both located in Porter County.
Historically, this area was referred to as the Central Dunes region of the Indiana Dunes. Octave Chanute, an aviation pioneer, conducted numerous hang gliding experiments on the dunes in this area during the 1890s.
Creation of the Port of Indiana-Burns Harbor facility was controversial due to the environmentally sensitive nature of the area. The United Steelworkers Union, however, argued that creation of the port facility would increase national security due to increased steel production and create high-paying jobs.
When created, the port served the Midwest Steel Division of National Steel Corporation (U.S. Steel Corporation in 2022) to the west, Bethlehem Steel Corporation (Cleveland-Cliffs, Inc. in 2022) to the east, and the Bailly Generating Plant of the Northern Indiana Public Service Company (owned by NiSource). also to the east.

The Octave of Easter, known as Low Sunday, Quasimodo Sunday, has also come to be known in more recent times as "Divine Mercy Sunday." It was through St. John Paul II that the Octave of Easter received this new title in the Church's calendar. Drawing inspiration from the diary of Sister Faustina, the Octave of Easter has received a renewed emphasis on the mercy of God.
In a beautiful homily delivered on this day by St. Augustine of Hippo, he declared to the newly baptized, "You have been buried with Christ by baptism into death in order that, as Christ has risen from the dead, you also may walk in newness of life." For it was traditionally on this day that the Church received her newly baptized catechumens with maternal delight. Holy Mother Church rejoiced over her new children, all of which is made possible by the mercy of God in calling us to Himself while we were yet sinners.
St. Faustina recorded these words from our Lord Himself: "I desire that the Feast of Mercy be a refuge and shelter for all souls, and especially for poor sinners. On that day the very depths of My tender mercy are open. I pour out a whole ocean of graces upon those souls who approach the fount of My mercy." May we turn with trust to the Divine Mercy of Almighty God and seek Him in all things.

The coast of Belleville, 1868.
Born into a family originally from Pleyben, in Finistère in Brittany, Octave Penguilly L’Haridon enrolled at the Ecole Polytechnique in 1831. He rapidly combined his military career with training as an artist under the painter Charlet, without abandoning his duties as an officer and went on to become Director of the Musée de l’Artillerie in 1854. The painter exhibited works at the Salon from 1835 to 1870. Although he enjoyed portraying historical subjects in armour, both on canvas and in illustration, he is known today above all as one of the first and most original champions of the Breton landscape.
This originality earned him the admiration of Baudelaire in his reviews of the Salon, an enthusiasm which was shared by Théophile Gautier: “Far from paths trod by man, along deserted bays, and in creeks known only to seagulls and kittiwakes, he [Octave Penguilly L’Haridon] goes in search of rocks with strange and monstrous shapes, bizarrely jagged horizons, blue-green and cerulean seas. With the exactitude of a daguerreotype, he reproduces these locations in a scrupulously realistic fashion. You might think they came from the moon or Mars, they are so different from the sights one is accustomed to" (Abécédaire for the Salon of 1861, p 305).
With its rocky aspect and amazing composition containing a minimum amount of sky, this view of the Normandy coast at Belleville (Seine-Maritime) painted in 1868 is evocative of the almost fantastical world of the artist’s finest paintings. The marine landscape was presented at the Salon of 1869 (Côtes de Belleville, n° 1895) along with another variation on the theme of cliffs (The Spoonbills, n° 1894, acquired by the State and sent to the Musée des Beaux-Arts in La Rochelle) and is one of the last masterpieces by the artist, who died in 1870.
