Want to try your hand on an IBM punch card machine? Punched cards were widely used through much of the 20th century in the data processing industry, where specialized and increasingly complex unit record machines, organized into semiautomatic data processing systems, used punched cards for data input, output, and storage. Critical record keeping was done on punch cards across many industries and dropping a stack of cards was a disaster. Come learn more about how this machine was used and punch your own souvenir card to take home during the demo from 2-4PM!
Stop by CMoA today and meet Aibo, a companion robot dog with advanced artificial intelligence (AI). Between 1-3PM, a Museum volunteer will demonstrate Aibo’s tricks and ability to follow commands. Learn more about AI including its history, where it is used today, and where it is going in the future.

Computer Museum of America (CMoA) is happy to bring you another Bytes & Brews: The Museum After-Hours event to be held September 23rd from 5:30PM-9PM.
Visit CMoA this fall evening and be the first to see WW2 technology such as bomb sights and communication devices that will be displayed in the museum’s Nook Look. These pristine artifacts compliment the Enigma machine already on display.
In addition, CMoA is happy to have author Jan Slimming speak a few minutes about her book, “Codebreaker Girls: A Secret Life at Bletchley Park” which tells the true story of Daisy Lawrence, Jan’s mother, and her experiences during WW2 working at the secretive Bletchley Park. You may also purchase a copy of her book and have it signed.
Bytes, as in bites, of light appetizers, and adult beverages will be available for purchase and live music is provided. Attendees can explore the Museum and mingle with other guests.
This event is for guests 21+.
If you are a CMoA member, please enter your discount or promo code for the event, If you don’t have that code, please contact us at info@computermuseumofamerica.org.

Want to try out a vintage typewriter and get a sense of what keyboards were like before computer keyboards? Can you type on a manual typewriter faster than you can tap out a message on your device? Experience how the keyboards felt and sounded before the machine was ever connected to electricity. See if you can identify some common keys on keyboards of today that were not on earlier models. Visit Computer Museum of America on Saturday, January 29th from 1:00 – 3:00 PM and try out a few units and meet typewriter subject matter expert Tom Rehkopf.
Free with museum admission.
