Ștefan Procopiu Science and Technique Museum

The last museum I visited in the Palace of Culture was the Ștefan Procopiu Science and Technique Museum, and it was so incredible it cannot be described. The large collection of items includes a wonderful section on sound recording and reproduction, typing and some early computers. It's a heaven of cogs and wheels, and I'll leave the photos to speak for themselves. 

 

Looks better than that rare Cramps picture disc you have
 
A music box
 
A music box disc
 
Another music box disc
 
Large music box
 
Detail of the music box cylinder
 
Music punch card
 
I have no clue how this works
 
Not to mention this
 
Well, this seems complicated
 
I take it back
 
No, really
 
WHAT THE HELL
 
Gramophones collection
 
Mad scientist vol. I
 
Mad scientist vol. II
 
Yes, computers, less powerful than what you're using
 

As you can see for yourself, the exhibit is incredible (and there were more, I just didn't want to overdo it). Truly, if you happen in this city, you should NOT miss this.
