‘Interpreting the Information Age’: new avenues for research and display

 

November 3rd – 5th 2014

Science Museum, London

 

Dear colleagues,

 

In autumn 2014, the Science Museum will open a ground-breaking new permanent gallery, Information Age. The gallery will expose, examine and celebrate how information and communication technologies have transformed our lives over the last 200 years. To mark this launch, the Museum is hosting a three day conference which will discuss how the history and material culture of information can be made relevant for today’s audiences, and celebrate the participation projects which have supported the gallery’s development.

 

We would welcome contributions from peers across the sector and beyond, to support this exciting conference. The call for contributions can be viewed at http://www.sciencemuseum.org.uk/about_us/new_research_folder/news_and_events/~/media/14CF9342DB8B459D92E3DAECBC3F5C39.ashx – please send all proposals to research@sciencemuseum.ac.uk by Friday 25th April 2014.
