An amazing few days with @bt_uk at @bletchleypark - We had our annual Tech Fellowship conference and couldn't have found a better location.
Our shared history is significant, much of what happened with the code breaking relied on the Defence Teleprinter Network & telephones...

Congratulations to @ericsson for preserving and presenting their fascinating history in such an engaging way! #historyoftechnology #industrialarchaeology #STEM

[Andy Sutton @960sutton]

My BT Tower talk had its first run out last night.
The building itself is a perfect example of what Industrial archaeologists refer to as 'form follows function' - a building shaped to deliver a new national telecommunications network, soon(ish) to be reborn as a hotel.

It's always a pleasure and an inspiration to talk with the next generation of engineers.
Thanks to @LivUni for inviting me to
continue my annual @BTGroup lecture to the Department of Electrical Engineering & Electronics.
Thanks to Arcangelo Ferrigno for his awesome contribution.
