| ................................................................................ |
Central to the exhibition were sixty historical television sets, related
memorabilia, and panels examining the history and socio-cultural influence
of television. Watching TV was divided into six sections, beginning
with the birth of mechanical television in the 1920s and culminating in a
look at television now, and in the future. Each section traced various
television developments, demonstrating television's evolution from an
experimental technology to a communications system with global reach and
influence.
