Since 1996, when I went to the one in San Francisco, I’ve wanted to make one of these. Probably I’d need an off-the-grid-type lair to put it in.
I hadn’t yet heard of the webcam.

It’s rumored that Leonardo DaVinci used one of these to show himself at his drafting table, hunched over, neither making eye contact nor wearing a shirt. Only in the 21st century can we all enjoy such activities.
In the dark.
