I really enjoyed the second season of Severance, so when I saw that someone created a printable 3D model of the board speaker from the show, I couldn’t resist making one, but had no idea what I would use it for.
It wasn’t until I printed it out, that I realized the size would make it a perfect housing for my 1st-gen Amazon Echo Dot. I simply drilled a hole in the back just big enough for the speaker’s USB cord and mounted it inside. I took things a step further by creating an Alexa routine that starts with the prompt, “Alexa, I request an audience with the board.”
Once I had my Echo Dot in the board speaker enclosure and a silly Alexa routine set up, I decided to make a fun little video to share on Bluesky, Mastodon, and Threads. Now, back to finishing Cold Harbor.
