Stimulated by the Science Museum Group’s collections of cinema technology, Jean-Philippe Calvin, created a new soundtrack for the1927 silent film ‘Museums of the New Age’.

For this project the Science Museum searched for people passionate about the technologies of music to collaboratively develop ideas for the museum’s collections.
