This is a compact exhibition, which concentrates on the
development of radio technology in Australia. Sub-themes
explore the design of the radio housing to attract the domestic
market, the use of the radio in the home and some of the
popular broadcasts.
Generally, the exhibition panels are shown alongside
relevant historical objects. These are usually
located in the collections of the host venue. However, when
this is
not possible, QEM are generally able to add some
objects to the exhibition for the duration of the hire period.
QEM
encourage hosts to attract local groups that
are connected with community radio, theatre, dance and drama
to visit the
exhibition and share some of their own related
memories and experiences. The interactive sessions can enrich
the impact
of the exhibition and have the potential to enhance
and extend the local history of the host community. This exhibition is available to tour. For more information
contact Dr Jan King, Director, Queensland Energy Museum.
