The Relics Project

The Computer Laboratory has a long history in the world of computing and has made many august contributions to the subject.

This Relics Project has two aims:

  • to catalogue and preserve the various artifacts of historical interest stored around the lab,
  • to create video recordings of lab members who used our early computers talking about those artifacts,

The project started in September 1997, and the first recorder was Prof. David Wheeler.
