👨👩👧👦 “I HAD ONE OF THOSE!”
It’s probably one of the things we hear most at Re:Wired.
One of our favourite things about the museum is watching different generations discover technology together.
👨 “I used this at school!”
👧 “HOW did you play games on THAT?”

Re:Wired Hero of Tech: Ada Lovelace
Long before laptops, games consoles or smartphones, Ada Lovelace imagined something incredible.
In the 1800s, she worked on ideas for Charles Babbage’s Analytical Engine — a mechanical computer that was never fully built in her lifetime.
This week at Re:Wired Wednesday: Building museum exhibits
Re:Wired Wednesdays are our evening sessions for young people aged 8–14, mixing retro tech, creativity, gaming history and hands-on activities.
This week, we’re getting properly hands-on.
