Minnesota

Hilde attended the conference History, Gender & Computing in Minnesota in May 08…


A great conference, many nice and clever researchers, and an interesting exhibition – Gendered Bits – arranged by Charles Babbage Institute.

Group work: trying to figure out the many pictures from the early computer history

Atle was also there, and we enjoyed 2 beautiful days before the conference started.

We were staying in the neighbourhood where a bridge collapsed the year before, bits and pieces still there to give an idea about what happened

They have some strange habits in Minnesota…
