How about if we built our own Tardis's (I have the skills for that) with 
console. and we used it to put in community centres to take people back in 
time showing wee films about Common Good, May Day, history of the city - 
with built in sound recording so folk could leave comments. The two doors 
could open out to display gadgetry, open source software, we could do wee 
demo's, workshops - makefair's ...
