[INFOGRAPHIE] Une visualisation de l’histoire de la philosophie. | Philovideo.com Voici une visualisation de l’histoire de la philosophie du point de vue des relations entre les philosophes. Cette carte heuristique a été conçue en deux étapes. La première consiste en l’extraction de la rubrique « Influenced by » de la page Wikipedia (anglais) de chacun des philosophes. La deuxième en l’élaboration d’un réseau et de la représentation visuelle grâce au logiciel Gephi. Bien que cette initiative soit intéressante, nous pouvons y regretter deux choses. Toutefois, une tentative analogue s’appuyant sur une base de données plus crédible, par exemple celle du Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy ou des Presses Universitaires de France, pourrait corriger ces deux lacunes et s’avérer utile à l’intelligence de l’histoire de la philosophie. source: Drunks&Lampposts Like this: J'aime chargement…

The World’s First Mobile Phone Shown on 1922 Vintage Film A couple of years ago, British Pathé uncovered some striking footage from 1922 showing two women experimenting with the first mobile phone. A spokesman for the archive said: ”It’s amazing that nearly 90 years ago mobile phone technology and music … was not only being thought of but being trialled.” “The phone even has a lid which makes it the first flip-phone we are aware of, although it is probably not going to win any design awards.” He added, ”We would be delighted to hear from anyone who can tell us anything about the film, from where it is shot to who the women might be or even about the phone itself.” For another gem from the British Pathé archive, don’t miss The King’s Speech (1938), which gives you a glimpse of King George VI making a speech to open an exhibition in Scotland — the same king that became the subject of the 2010 Academy Award-winning film.
