Cogs2Computers, our 2020/2021 project, is designed to support and bring the Red2Green community, the local schools and the public together to learn the history of computers, to enjoy interacting with one another and to learn something new.

The participants for the project include people with autism, people with profound learning disabilities, school children and people from the local and surrounding communities. We look forward to bringing the community together to explore the history of computers through shared learning and fun.
We are currently looking for older members of these communities because we want to hear about how the coronavirus pandemic has changed how they use technology. Please get in contact with us to join in!
Please visit the websites of our project partners, Swaffham Bulbeck Primary School and The Centre for Computing History!
Then and NowThroughout January and February we have focused on the Then and Now project which looked at the developments in technology from the year someone was born and a comparison to what is available now.
Learners and staff have really enjoyed this personal aspect of the project and journey. We have learned all about developments in gaming history, the first laptop, IBM's Deep Blue computer beating a grand chess master and how animation from Pixar has brought us some of our favourite films along with many more. There has been some amazing work produced by clients participating at home with George making an amazing YouTube video about Pixar. George has given us permission to share his video with you, so here it is! Please give him a like if you enjoyed it. He has worked incredibly hard on this. |
