Computer Museum
Computer Musem is my personal research project about history of computers, awarded by institutions, tv and magazines. The collection, started in 1991 as a personal study about peculiar design of computer machines, has developed in the first italian websites about history of computing, published online since 1996.
In the past 15 years my project was shown on books, magazines, television interviews and documentaries, and won a national webdesign prize. Some of the computers have been used in movie productions set in the past decades.
In 2007 my collection of vintage machines, now reaching more than 100 pieces, has been exhibited in the Ara Pacis Museum in Rome and published in a catalogue.
