Thanks for your patience during our recent outage at scalar.usc.edu. While Scalar content is loading normally now, saving is still slow, and Scalar's 'additional metadata' features have been disabled, which may interfere with features like timelines and maps that depend on metadata. This also means that saving a page or media item will remove its additional metadata. If this occurs, you can use the 'All versions' link at the bottom of the page to restore the earlier version. We are continuing to troubleshoot, and will provide further updates as needed. Note that this only affects Scalar projects at scalar.usc.edu, and not those hosted elsewhere.

Following this, the report discusses the lack of illustration surrounding Canada’s prominent scientific past, noting that “Canada, in the last fifteen years, has become one of the world’s important industrial nations; and a science museum would serve not only to record Canadian achievements in science and technology but as a valuable guide and as a reference for future developments” (Massey Commission, 91). With this discussion the Canada Science and Technology Museum begins to manifest, however, thought was needed in order to create such a museum. The foundations are put forward by J. H. Parkin, Babaian notes the following regarding Parkin: “He saw the museum as having a duel function: to create a ‘visual record’ of Canadian achievements in science and technology, and to provide an educational resource on the history of science and technology for popular and scholarly visitors alike” (Babaian, 4). The museum has evolved over time into what is enjoyed today, exemplary of this growth is the use of sound. This chapter will argue that by way of sonic experience, the Canada Science and Technology Museum has evolved over time to provide more harmonious interiors, culminating in the sound exhibit (Figure 1).
