AI-Generated sound therapy for critically ill patients

Corona Guan Wang

Ingenium – Canada's Museums of Science and Innovation

At the start of 2022, I joined Ingenium – Canada’s Museums of Science and Innovation as a research assistant. Ingenium curators Dr. Tom Everrett (Communications) and Dr. David Pantalony (Physical Sciences and Medicine) invited me to write about a research project that I am currently affiliated with called Autonomous Adaptive Soundscape (AAS). The AAS is an intelligent bio-algorithmic system that selects therapeutic soundscapes to relax ICU patients, via application of machine learning and

Code in Place: Learning Python during a pandemic

Kristy von Moos

Ingenium - Canada's Museums of Science and Innovation

When the global COVID-19 pandemic struck, two Stanford University Computer Science professors decided to engage in a unique experiment; offer 10,000 students from all over the world the opportunity to learn to code using Python — online, for free.

Melissa Sariffodeen: Blazing a digital literacy trail for girls and women

Nathaniel Neil Whelan

The annals of history are filled with the accomplishments of remarkable people: discoverers of scientific phenomena and innovators of new technologies. But for the most part, history only celebrates the achievements of men. Granted, our high school textbooks teach us about Joan of Arc and Marie Antoinette, but what about women in science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM)? Their absence is proof of centuries of marginalization and gender discrimination. It shouldn’t be surprising then to

Why do we call computer glitches “bugs”?

Ingenium - Canada's Museums of Science and Innovation

The term “bug” is another way of saying something is wrong with our computer or software, but where did the term come from? While many attribute the reference to computer scientist Grace Hopper, this article from Curiosity explains that it dates back to Thomas Edison’s private journals.

Researching the untold story of Canada’s keypunch girls

Ingenium - Canada's Museums of Science and Innovation

Last summer, the Canada Science and Technology Museum offered up access to its collection so that researcher Jennifer Thivierge could study “keypunch girls” — the women who punched holes in data cards and fed them into machines or tabulators, starting in the 1950s. The University of Ottawa’s Gazette writes about her findings, and what they say about gender discrimination within the field of computer science.

Project Log #1: Raspberry Pi & Arduino

To be honest, I was not completely sure what I would be doing in my internship here at the Canadian Aviation and Space Museum. There had been mentions of a cool project, but I really had no idea what I was getting into.

NASA has issued a challenge to the community

Jesse Rogerson, PhD

Canada Aviation and Space Museum

The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) has issued a challenge to its public: increase the efficiency of one of its high-level research software and win $55,000 USD. Many of us forget that NASA also works in aeronautics, not just space. In order to develop cutting edge air planes and other flight tech, NASA begins with simulating airflow using a Fortran code called FUN3D. However, FUN3D isn't able to keep up with some of the simulations its been given. As a result, NASA has
