When Rudolf Jan Suchý and Agáta Trlidová were making an interview with Tomáš Bartovský about Robot Karel, they also received a few gifts for the archive - specifically two vinyl records and instructions on how to use them. After a thorough digitization process, which also involved Jan Heřman, we managed to resurrect several ZX Spectrum programs (including a previously unpreserved version of Karel for this platform) but also Karel for the Czechoslovak IQ 151 home computer. Jan Heřman recorded a video about this adenture, which you will find on his channel, Andrew Tesla. The video also features an interview with Rudolf Jan Suchý about the history of how and why Karel ended up on vinyl records in the first place.
