In 2002 he initiated the multimedia presentation “Wall of Fame”, which was finished in 2004. In the same year, Ryska was able to convince the Nixdorf Foundation Board for his concept of an extensive expansion and update of the permanent exhibition to acquire and implement the areas of "Interfaces-Kommunikation mit der Maschine" ("interface communication with the machine"), "Künstliche Intelligenz und Robotik" ("artificial intelligence and robotics"), "Mobile Kommunikation" ("mobile communication"), "Digitale Welt" ("digital world"), "Showroom – Technik von morgen" ("showroom – technology of tomorrow"). In 2007, Ryska and the HNF participated in the

English and Romance languages in MĂĽnster and from the summer of 1969 he continued his studies in philology for three further terms at Bonn University. From the winter semester of 1970/71 he studied mathematics and computer science. The mathematician Friedrich Hirzebruch was one of his professors. In the summer of 1976, Ryska received a diploma in mathematics. During his studies he had part-time jobs for Inter Nationes, the German Bundestag and the Reuters news agency.

a “spatial dramaturgy”, a “experiential museum” was created with “contemporary surroundings” perspectively integrated via “time stations” and a “cultural-historical panorama wall”. This also appeared as a specific contribution to a socially and ecologically compatible design of technology within the framework of public technology policy dialogues about the future of industrial societies. The presentations, designed over two floors, met a recognized level of high quality standards in terms of content and functionality.

The Westphalia Foundation, founded by Heinz Nixdorf, appointed Norbert Ryska to the project team for a computer museum in 1992. On April 1, 1993, he became managing director of the non-profit Forum fĂĽr Informationstechnik GmbH.

The founding process of the development of a "computer museum" initiated by the

An open, non-linear presentation concept was realized that presented both the before and after one another as well as the simultaneity in concrete historical and social contexts of technological development, also as a basis for further current questions in an interdisciplinary public forum.
