MESSAGE FROM THE CHAIRMAN

It gives me great pleasure to look back at the last twelve months as I complete my first year as Chairman of the Board of Trustees. This year we implemented a new governance structure with the establishment of a Board of Trustees and a Board of Overseers, each of which is working diligently and enthusiastically for the Museum.

The financial statements on page 6 record a large increase in operating activity, reflecting expanded edu­ cational programs. It is gratifying to note that we kept revenues ahead of expenses to realize a small oper­ ating surplus this year.

This banner year also capped our first decade in Boston. The pages that follow tell the remarkable story of the Museum's development, first with a report on the decade by Oliver Strimpel, our Executive Director, and then with a pictorial timeline from 1984 to 1994.

On behalf of the entire Board, I extend thanks to

Chairman of the Board Charles all the individuals, corporations, and foundations who A. Zraket explores The Walk·Through T Computer ". with young visitors. committed hard work and funds to build and nurture this special institution. I hope you will all be with us as we enter our second decade.

7 · Chairman of the Board John William Poduska, Sr., helped the Museum make the transition from its first home at Digital Equipment Corporation in Marl­ boro, Massachusetts, to Museum Wharf in Boston.

Moving into Museum Wharf: all able bodies were used to heft the SAGE Air Defense System console carefully into the elevator for display.

ANfSQ.7 The exhibitions included Whirlwind, and two floors of the SAGE, AN/FSQ 7; WHIRLWIND a timeline for the 1950s through the 1970s; an IBM 1401 installation; Seymour Cray's machines; chips and manufac­ turing; and The Computer and the Image, better known as the "graphics gallery." By 1993, none ofthe original exhibits was left.

Installed, the SAGE console's lights were programmed to simulate the machine in operation.

A visitor punches cards at the IBM 1401 exhibit. This interactive was popular but hard to maintain. Over the span of six years, about ten card punch machines were demoli shed by use.

The graphics gallery featured seven interactives on different platforms. Andy Kristoffy, research assistant for graphics, is using a Masscomp minicomputer to recolor his face according to the reflectiv­ ity of light. This technique was used in medical imaging to show bone fractures.

Photo: Lou Goodman - s The Animation Theater in the graphics gallery started the Museum on a series of programs featuring computer-gen­ erated films. These have continued to fascinate visitors to the present day. Here Andre, one of the first fully three-dimensional models, is waking up. He was created in the 1984 film "Andre & Wally B." by the team that was to form Pixar.

On COBOL's 25th anniversary, its premature tombstone was given to the Museum. Left to right: Oliver Smoot, CODASYL Committee Secretary Thomas Rice, current COBOL Committee Chairman Donald Nelson, Commodore Grace M. Hopper, Michael O'Connell and Howard Bromberg. Bromberg was the originator of the tombstone in a fit of frustration with the committee work on the original COBOL specifications. The COBOL Tombstone is on view in the gallery, PEOPLE AND COMPUTERS: Milestones of a Revolution.

Bill Gates' Teletype tape to input the BA,SIC interpreter for the Altair was added to the collection. This BASIC interpreter became a de facto standard for microcomputers.

For a Mouseathon' at the Museum, teams built microprocessor-based robots to find their way through a maze to the cheese. The competition was be­ tween a set of Japanese mice and three mice brought by Dr. John Billingsley of England.

A UNIVAC 1, located in the garage of Mrs. Sarah Lawson in Goodlettsville, Tennessee, was donated to the Museum. Students of Professor Arthur Riehl of the University of Louisville and Dr. John McGregor, Murray State University, refurbished the computer for display.

The UNIVAC was the first commercial computer; only 50 were made. Its fame came from correctly predicting Eisen­ hower's landslide election victory in 1952. In fact, at that time "univac" Photo: Arthur Rieh l was synonymous with" computer" and people referred to "IBM univacs."

Robot building workshops brought parents and children together for pro­ ject-based learning. Oliver Strimpel becomes Executive Director and realizes his dream exhibit, The Walk-Through Computer. The big­ gest project of the Museum to date involved a devoted team. Richard Fowler from Great Britain's National Museum of Photography, Film, and Television signed on as designer. David Macauley, famous for his books on the way things work, did the illustrations.

Jon Palfreman and Nancy Linde from WGBH-TV and Dean Winkler from Post Perfect Productions combined talents on the Software Theater. Drew Huffman from Paracomp animated many of the segments inside the chips and disk drive. A multi-talented staff and plethora of advisors and volunteers kept the project on schedule to open June 23.
