Armstrong. The exhibit traces Armstrong’s contributions to electronic communication by highlighting his technological innovations\, patriotism\, and the continuing relevance of his achievements. Beginning with an exploration of the humble origins of the radio era during the early 20th century\, we invite visitors to immerse themselves in Armstrong’s university years\, his military service during the First World War\, his alliance with the Radio Corporation of America (RCA)\, and the rise of the radio broadcasting industry. \nBetween Armstrong’s triumphs and tragedies\, Unseen Signals reveals the profound cultural and political impact of broadcasting and the influence of WWI and WWII on wireless communication. It recaptures how men\, women\, and children participated in the radio revolution through photographs\, advertisements\, and our unique collection of radio-branded cultural items and ephemera. Come and see the prototype (superheterodyne) radio from which modern radios are descended\, explore period photographs and cultural artifacts\, and engage with touchscreen interactives featuring original broadcasts and short documentary films. \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n About IEEE\n \n More About Unseen Signals URL:https://pavekmuseum.org/event/unseen-signals-the-pavek-museums-traveling-exhibit/ LOCATION:Pavek Museum\, 3517 Raleigh Ave\, St. Louis Park\, Minnesota\, 55416 ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://pavekmuseum.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/12/featured-image-ieee.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Chicago:20260620T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Chicago:20260620T200000 DTSTAMP:20260602T180817 CREATED:20260327T184559Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260520T155751Z UID:10000167-1781971200-1781985600@pavekmuseum.org SUMMARY:Challenge Accepted: Video Game Night DESCRIPTION:Challenge Accepted\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\nThe Pavek Museum’s 1st annual Video Game Night & Tournament is on Saturday\, June 20\, 2026! \n\n\n\n\nCalling all gamers!
