Tony Sale The National Museum of Computing

In collaboration with Bletchley Park Trust, we are establishing The National Museum of Computing at Bletchley Park. Bletchley is home to Colossus, the world's first programmable electronic computer, and to the UK's contribution to World War II code breaking. It is generally recognised as the birthplace of electronic computing, and as such it has a unique place in history.

We intend to create an accredited world-class museum showing the development of computing from pioneering wartime efforts to the present day and are planning to show the progress so far in building the museum.

We will also present a short history of the Colossus rebuild project including video clips of the machine running.

Narrative Hypermedia is...


Narrative Hypermedia
Narrative is concerned fundamentally with coherence, for instance, whether that be a fiction, an historical account or an argument, none of which 'make sense' unless they are put together in a coherent manner.

Hypermedia is the combination of hypertext for linking and structuring multimedia information.

Narrative Hypermedia is therefore concerned with how all of the above narrative forms, plus the many other diverse forms of discourse possible on the Web, can be effectively designed to communicate coherent conceptual structures, drawing inspiration from theories in narratology, semiotics, psycholinguistics and film.
