  5. Our #ObjectOfTheWeek is also a #NewAcquisition: How To Give Yourself A Stereo Check-Out by Decca Records (1967).

    This 12” LP was not only a standard test record of the time, but is also a mini crash course in important audio concepts like wow & flutter, Sound coloration, channel phasing and more.

  16. Dutch painter Nicolaes Maes (1634-1693) was a student of Rembrandt, who worked in Amsterdam and Dordrecht. One of his signature motifs is the eavesdropper, seen here in The Eavesdropping Man (1655) & The Listening Wife (1656).

  17. Marking 365 days since the Russian invasion of Ukraine by re-visiting the second object ever donated to our Physical Objects Collection: a 1988 Ukrainian AM/FM radio donated by Dr Kate Yonova-Doing, which was handed over to our care by her husband Karel on 16 Dec 2015. We express solidarity with the Ukrainian people and hope a peaceful resolution ends this horrific war soon.
