RadioExperience

RADIO AND CIRCUITS

  • Electrical circuits
  • Conductors and insulators
  • Electromagnetic induction
  • Function of basic electronic components

Workshop
The inside of vintage radios offers an effective way to understand fundamental concepts in electronics—concepts that often appear sterile in diagrams and unintelligible in modern circuits. Let’s explore them through a hands-on activity.

Target audience
Primary school (grade 5) and lower and upper secondary school students.

Duration
2 hours

SOUND AND MUSIC

  • Sound production

  • Sound propagation through different materials

  • Elements of sound perception

  • Musical instruments – loudspeakers – microphones

Workshop
We listen to most music (and more) through loudspeakers: let’s discover how they work by building them and experimenting with how their shape and materials affect their function.

Target audience
Primary school (from grade 3) and lower secondary school students.

Duration
2 hours

  • Codes and ciphers
  • Morse and Braille encoding
  • Encryption systems
  • Modulation and demodulation

Workshop
Throughout history, those needing to communicate have faced the challenge of encryption to safeguard the confidentiality of information. In this workshop, we explore both ancient and modern cryptographic techniques and their use in radiotelegraphy.

Target audience
Primary school (from grade 3) and lower and upper secondary school students.

Duration
2 to 3 hours

CELL PHONES: THEN AND NOW

  • Electromagnetic waves and the radiation spectrum
  • Evolution of cell phones
  • Antenna surveys and measurements
  • 3G -> 4G -> 5G 
  • Wi-Fi
  • Biological effects of radiation

Workshop
Modern mobile communication technology is the evolution of the wireless telegraph concept, with early cell phones using frequencies similar to those of radios.

Target audience
Lower and upper secondary school students.

Duration
3 hours

FORMS IN COMPARISON

  • Internal and external components
  • Materials
  • Aesthetics
  • The “speaking” parts

Workshop
How has technological evolution influenced taste? How have practical needs shaped stylistic choices? Radios can help us explore these questions.

Target audience
Primary school (from grade 3) and lower and upper secondary school students.

Duration
2 hours

RADIO AND DESIGN

  • Evolution of style and taste
  • Shapes and colors
  • Design process
  • Famous designers

Educational Pathway
Through the displayed radios, we can explore the history of taste and design by studying and comparing models and materials, then designing your own radio.

Target audience
Primary school (from grade 3) and lower and upper secondary school students.

Duration
2 to 3 hours

THE HISTORY OF RADIO, THE HISTORY OF SOCIETY

  • How radio listening has evolved
  • Society: local and national perspectives
