Glitched Historical Centennial Bulb
A glitched pop-art version of the historic light bulb we used in one of our first IG posts. That version was the featured image for our blog article on validation of start-up ideas. This is a version of the Centennial bulb of Livermore, CA. It is the longest burning light bulb of all time. Post and some comments below may be synced from our original Instagram version.

Here’s a glitch of steampunk icon Charles Babbage himself (Wikipedia bio). (This is part 3 of a series of glitch art photos posted to our Instagram feed.) Babbage invented a mechanical computer in the 19th century that is still being studied today. It was one of our most popular set of photos on IG. So, of course we had to do some glitched art versions. Later versions of Babbage’s inventions were built after his death and performed calculations for tables used by sailors and statisticians. These early mechanical computers were gradually improved over the next 200 years, ultimately incorporating electronics. The history of the computer does not begin with the transistor.

Encore glitched version of countess Ada Lovelace and her 19th century early mechanical computer. This was one of our most popular sets of photos ever (and who could resist a Countess, daughter of Lord Byron who has the Princess Leia hairstyle and is considered the first computer programmer? The programming language Ada is named after her.) So, of course, we had to do some encore glitch pop art versions. This is one of the collages.

Our of our most popular posts have touched on Ray Kurzweil themes of the Singularity as well as Ray Kurzweil’s decades-old ideas on wearables that appear to have inspired Google Glass. We noticed he’s done at least one additional Ted Talk since we ran our articles. (Oh. We needed a photo for an earlier version this, so we did this glitch art of the earlier Singularity-themed photo:) Kurzweil had quite a career. After coming to national prominence at an early age on a national quiz show for his computer-generated music (in the old Black & White mainframe days), he invented a reading machine for the blind (and OCR and speech synthesis in the process). He went on to start a eponymous music synthesizer company (one of many successful companies he’s founded). Recently he founded Singularity University and did a stint at Google working on artificial intelligence. The predictions in his best-selling books and videos, based on Moore’s law, have been eerily accurate.… Read the restRecent Comments
