The Oldenburg Computer Museum – Rearing and Care
The Oldenburg Computer Museum (OCM) is a German computer museum founded
in 2008 and run by volunteers. This talk presents a historical outline
of the founding of the OCM. From building up the collection to opening
the first exhibition to founding the supporting association and moving
to the current premises – and the professionalisation that goes with it.
Thiemo Eddiks presents the didactic concept, explains the museum work in
the team and gives insights into and outlooks on current projects. In
addition, he talks about problems associated with running a museum as a
hobby.
