For the MIS cultural manager, what may surprise the public most at this exhibition is seeing that technological evolution does not stop “and that radio, despite being 100 years old, is still very present for people”.

In Daniel’s assessment, it also draws attention “that a Brazilian priest, Roberto Landell de Moura, was responsible for the first experiment of what came to become radio, it is also very interesting to see how he already predicted in his studies, which was later the wireless internet network, for example. It is something quite surprising that the exhibition reveals to the public”.

In partnership with the Institute of Physics of the University of São Paulo (USP), the exhibition presents an interactive installation, with simple experiments, to illustrate the discoveries of physicists and inventors, contemporaries of Landell, who contributed to the technological evolution of radio.

Other attractions of the exhibition are the original documents from the Historical and Geographical Institute of Rio Grande do Sul, the patent registered by Landell in the United States, schematics and preliminary studies of his experiments and original diaries. Curated by researcher Helena Tassara and biographer Hamilton de Almeida.
