The potential of broadcast

Science Museum exhibit reimagined by Cities and Memory. In the early 20th century, technologies we now perceive as archaic were seen as an almost unbelievably advanced future - the Science Museum's broadcast zone conveys some of the wonder of the connected world. As such, we've brought together sounds that signify science fiction - big, buzzing waves of synths - to package up sounds from the early history of broadcast communication. As the voice in the recording says, "this is something with tremendous potential".
