Meet Zelky an pi zero cluster.

Well progress for the main site goes slow. I have several irons in the fire but it takes time to finalize.
One i can write of is the 1st spin-off of the Chimera stack. zelky cluster.

Because im hoping for any real group that wants to jump the train. I made it my news years resolution. But it was just around the corner. My mobile music player zelky (2.0) had an upgrade and is now a cluster of one banana pi m4 zero and two raspberry pi’s zero 2’s (mainly for extra WiFi antenna)

Zelky cluster jumps in the social media gap of real live offline events. You carry the cluster (taking less than 3 watt) with you on your real live travels. moving from location to location.
You can create locations and set them public or private.
If private only people that sign in on the local network that moment can see and share content.
If it is a public location some content will be published while being on other locations. Or pushed to the offline site.

Offline becomes online online becomes offline.

Anyone can join the offline site. https://zelky.daft-cloud.nl and when you are on the same local LAN as the zelky cluster you are redirected to a working endpoint of the zelky cluster.
Only when your locally at the online website. (that still works if the whole internet is offline)
you can login and will be able to do a lot of social media that does not escape your local bubble.

Endless fields of mud are the limit.

Music

Zelky 1.0 was born as a Wifi Bluetooth speaker. that could play any music using a sBluetooth speaker with out using your phone as Bluetooth control. Because when you’re in the park with friends. Sitting in the grass of the (city) park enjoy each others company, drink some beer play some music. enjoy life.
Then you scroll on your phone for a moment and see some interesting feed with sound. BUT YOU CANT PLAY SOUND BECAUSE THAT PLAYS THE MUSIC.
zelky took care of that for years.

Now with a nice banana pi and a big WiFi antenna zelky can host a whole disco. Any where with only phones and Bluetooth speakers as additional equipment.

Boy scout hub.

Now if you mix tech and boy scouts you always have the issue. WHO HOLDS THE DEVICE.
with zelky in one of the backpacks. everyone with his own phone can connect to the same offline system. So that every kiddo can do its own expertise. take pictures write journals. check gps/lora logs.

Festival HQ

Blast the camp with your local expandable music system.
Set up a local social media platform with a NUKE content button for understandable festival stuff that should never leave the festival ground.
You don’t need to try to pull it from the internet (what is a impossible task) when it never reached the internet.
