QUANTUM: The Exhibition

TECHNOLOGIES POISED TO CHANGE OUR WORLD AT CENTRE OF NEW EXHIBITION.

Quantum technologies are poised to transform technology as we know it. A new exhibition premiering at THEMUSEUM on October 14, 2016 aims to highlight how quantum science is shaping a new technological revolution that could change all of our lives. Developed in collaboration with the University of Waterloo’s Institute for Quantum Computing (IQC), QUANTUM: The Exhibition delves into the basic ideas and theories of quantum mechanics and how these behaviours are being applied to technology that will

THEMUSEUM OF IDEA TRANSCENDING OBJECTS

EMBRACING THE UNORTHODOX THROUGH INNOVATION

THEMUSEUM OF IDEA TRANSCENDING OBJECTS – or just THEMUSEUM as most people call it- was born out of the ashes of the underachieving Waterloo Regional Children’s Museum. David Marskell, a former marketing director at the Canadian National Exhibition and now THEMUSEUM’s CEO, was asked to step in and steer the ship through rough waters. Marskell recognized that it was imperative to pivot from catering exclusively towards children and families to offering relevant programming for all background and

New age 21 century wedge free wood/log splitter

My inventiveness started at age 13 when I injured my hand operating a wood/log splitter, as so many thousands of others do, every year all over the world. After my many years of in several trades and engineering jobs, I started the research needed in development of a total new idea without the use of the traditional WEDGE for log splitters. I have tried 73 different designs and the 74th was the answer to improved safety, much less power usage, frame thickness, less welding and so on. Not

Art of Research Photo Contest

Art of Research

Queen's University

Finding a muse in research Often, much of the research being done at Queen’s University is only seen by those involved in the project or who belong to the same department. To help highlight some of the amazing work being done at Queen’s the Office of the Vice-Principal (Research) held the second annual Art of Research photo contest, calling on faculty, staff and students to showcase their research, scholarly and artistic work through photography. Dozens of images were received highlighting

Illustrated News – Half-tone Photographic Printing

Janis Nostbakken

October 30, 1869 was an eventful day in the history of publishing. The roots of photojournalism can be traced back to that date when the Canadian Illustrated News made its debut. The picture on the front page of the News was the focus of attention. The photo in itself was nothing special, but the process that put it there was extraordinary. Publisher Georges-Édouard Desbarats and his printer, William Leggo, had worked together to achieve what many others had tried but failed to do. They came up

Frank Morse Robb

Frank Morse Robb 1902–1992

Janis Nostbakken

Like many inventors, Morse Robb began his career in science at an early age. Born in Belleville, Ontario he was a studious and creative boy constantly coming up with gadgets that often backfired: his Christmas tree light flasher gave his father a shock; he ruined a good pair of pants in an attempt to make ether; and he created a highly sensitive chemical compound that exploded with the touch of a feather. But his puttering eventually paid off. By the time he was 11, Robb invented several

Sir Max Aitken (Lord Beaverbrook): Documenting Canada’s Wartime Experience

Canadian War Museum

Despite the enormous Canadian First World War effort, the government took a largely passive attitude to documenting the war. Luckily for Canada, and future generations, Sir Max Aitken (later Lord Beaverbrook) and Dominion Archivist Arthur Doughty successfully lobbied for better documentation and preservation of wartime activities. Aitken took it upon himself to establish the Canadian War Records Office (CWRO) in January 1916, with his own funds. The CWRO had two functions: to publicize the

Alex Janvier (1935 - ) Morning Star, 1993

Canadian Museum of History

Alex Janvier is a Dene Suline artist. In the early 1970s, he became a member of the Professional Native Indian Artists Incorporation. Others in the group included Daphne Odjig and Norval Morrisseau. A critic in Winnipeg gave the painters another name—the Indian Group of Seven, to reflect the group’s importance to the history of Canadian art. Janvier painted Morning Star (or Gambeh Then’ in Cree) on a dome at the Canadian Museum of History with the assistance of his son Dean. Work on the painting

Baskets

Canadian Museum of History

Wood splint baskets have been made by a number of First Nations peoples in the Northeastern Woodlands since the eighteenth century or earlier. As tourism became popular in the mid-nineteenth century, the demand for these splint baskets grew. In response to this demand, the “fancy” basket was invented. New tools were invented to standardize and speed up production. The gauge is a carved wooden tool with metal inserts that are evenly spaced so that the splints can be pulled across and cut to
