Gallery: Media History at the Technical Museum of Vienna

02.03.2010, written by Ritchie Blogfried Pettauer, No Comments

In Jan­u­ary I vis­ited the exhi­bi­tion Medi­en­wel­ten at Tech­nis­ches Museum Wien. It’s a fas­ci­nat­ing trip back to the very begin­nings of infor­ma­tion trans­mis­sion — a must for any­one inter­ested in the early begin­nings of this media society:

The medien.welten exhi­bi­tion presents the his­tory of trans­mis­sion media as well as stor­age media. On 2.500 square meters the evo­lu­tion of the mod­ern media-system becomes alive. In addi­tion to hun­dreds of his­tor­i­cal arte­facts, images and texts, the exhi­bi­tion fea­tures a virtual-information-room that goes beyond the scope of con­ven­tional museum exhibitions.

Last Sun­day I returned to the museum, but this time I brough my cam­era. There’s plenty to explore: from early tele­graph sys­tems which used a piano-keyboard for enter­ing mes­sages to a his­toric cin­ema. These pic­tures only high­light a bit of the exhi­bi­tion — so if you ever come to Vienna, pay a visit to the exhi­bi­tion yourself.
