Glitched Ada Lovelace Collage
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. Post and some comments below may be synced from our original Instagram version. Instagram likes: (more…)… Read the restRay Kurzweil Ted Videos on Dinosaur Extinctions
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 rest1853 Close-up of Babbage’s 19th-century early mechanical computer
Photo post: 1853 Close-up of Babbage’s difference engine, a 19th-century early mechanical computer. This was an earlier version of the analytic engine that Ada Lovelace from our previous posts programmed. Later versions of these massive machines were used to compute, among other things, error-free navigation tables. There is thus a clear line between early computers and our earlier photos on astrolabe, Gutenberg, printing, and the conquistadors. Inexpensive navigational tables were a killer app for the early printing presses. It is not coincidental that the voyages of discovery happened soon after the invention of inexpensive printing. Another chapter in the of story of data. Comments may link to a version of this post that originally appeared on our Instagram account.

We realized our original glitch art Pioneer Plaque historic infographic would work much better as a commuter mug. So we decided to redo our original emergency anti-extraterrestrial abduction Earth locator mug as a commuter mug. (Both mugs are still our family-friendly cropped design.) For starters, the original plaque was gold metal and designed to last a billion years in space as M.E.T.I./S.E.T.I. This version probably won’t last as long, but you can still try communicating with aliens by hurtling it at them. Hopefully they won’t mistake it for dangerous space junk. This commuter mug will help keep your coffee warm on the long interstellar trip. (And trip is definitely the right word here.) Were you really expecting them to have your favorite brand of Arabica coffee on a UFO? Don’t think so. If they even know what coffee is, it’s probably that ersatz Robusta stuff coming out of a food synthesizer.… Read the restRecent Comments
