@tencate Start by connector 1.

@tencate I'm pretty sure I could disassemble one.

But not in a way you'd be able to put back together again.

@tencate @icm might be able to help. They have one too: https://icm.museum/blog/?p=15

It seems the technicians from ZKM Karlsruhe found a way to disconnect at least two of the four sides of the CM. Thank you for all your replies and leads!

@fenixmaster Done! 65,535 to go...

@zorc @icm Thanks! It seems the technicians found a way to disconnect at least two of the four sides which should suffice to transport the machine for an upcoming conference and exhibition.

@tencate does it still have the dino DNA processing software on it?!

@ret Sorry to tell you: There was no dino DNA processing software, there were only blinkenlights.
