En 1900, unos buzos descubrieron por casualidad uno de los artefactos más desconcertantes de la historia: una máquina de precisión de más de 2000 años de antigüedad. El Mecanismo de Antikythera, un computador analógico griego capaz de predecir con asombrosa exactitud las posiciones de los planetas, las fases lunares y hasta los eclipses, ha sido finalmente reconstruido gracias a la tecnología moderna. En este episodio exploramos los secretos de este dispositivo imposible y lo que significa para nuestra comprensión de la historia antigua. ¿Cuánto conocimiento se ha perdido en el tiempo? ¿Qué otros tesoros aguardan aún en el fondo del mar Egeo?

We find ourselves in a pre-paradigmatic moment in which our technology has outpaced our theories of what to do with it. The task of philosophy today is to catch up. Benjamin Bratton is a Professor of Philosophy of Technology and Speculative Design at University of California, San Diego and the Director of Antikythera, an cross-disciplinary think tank researching the philosophy of computation supported by Berggruen Institute. In his Long Now Talk, Bratton takes us on a whirlwind philosophical journey into the concept of Planetary Computation — a journey that began in classical Greece with the story of the Antikythera mechanism, the analog computer that gave his think-tank its name. But his inquiry stretches far beyond antiquity — back to the very origins of biological life itself and forward to a present and future where we must increasingly grapple with artificial life and intelligence.

Back in the day, the ancient Egyptians had dreams of soaring like majestic birds, and they put their imaginations to the test with the Saqqara Glider. It's like they built a wooden wonder, a model airplane, before airplanes even existed. This glider had wings like a bird and the curiosity of an inventor – it's like a time-traveling experiment! Whether it was a prototype for future air travel or just an ancient game of aviation dreams, the Saqqara Glider is like a whisper from the past that's caught our modern imagination.

Melvyn Bragg and guests discuss the 2000-year-old device which transformed our understanding of astronomy in ancient Greece. In 1900 a group of sponge divers found the wreck of a ship off the coast of the Greek island of Antikythera. Among the items salvaged was a corroded bronze object, the purpose of which was not at first clear. It turned out to be one of the most important discoveries in marine archaeology. Over time, researchers worked out that it was some kind of astronomical analogue computer, the only one to survive from this period as bronze objects were so often melted down for other uses. In recent decades, detailed examination of the Antikythera Mechanism using the latest scientific techniques indicates that it is a particularly intricate tool for showing the positions of planets, the sun and moon, with a complexity and precision not surpassed for over a thousand years.With Mike Edmunds Emeritus Professor of Astrophysics at Cardiff UniversityJo Marchant Science journalist and author of 'Decoding the Heavens' on the Antikythera MechanismAnd Liba Taub Professor Emerita in the Department of History and Philosophy of Science at the University of Cambridge and Visiting Scholar at the Deutsches Museum, MunichProducer: Simon Tillotson In Our Time is a BBC Studios Audio ProductionReading list:Derek de Solla Price, Gears from the Greeks: The Antikythera Mechanism (American Philosophical Society Press, 1974)M.

Thousands of years ago great minds managed to create incredible technologies that were way ahead of their time, like a fire that couldn't be extinguished by water, an unbreakable medieval sword, and even an ancient computer from 200 B.C.E.! You'd be surprised to find out what crazy inventions existed back then that science still can't explain today. If you're ready to learn more about these mind-blowing ancient inventions plus a whole lot more, then keep on watching. TIMESTAMPS The stone globes of Costa Rica 0:59 The Roman dodecahedron 3:16 The Phaistos Disk in Crete 4:48 Greek fire 6:14 Damascus steel 7:31 The Iron pillar of Delhi 8:37 The Viking Ulfberht sword 10:11 The Voynich manuscript 11:56 The Zhang Heng seismograph 14:06 The Antikythera mechanism 15:12 #oldtechnology #damascucsteel #viking Music: https://www.youtube.com/audiolibrary/... SUMMARY -Granodiorite rocks can easily be carved using temperature techniques. Hundreds of stone spheres were found quarried in the foothills of the Talamanca Mountains. Researchers even saw a gigantic ball weighing over 16 tons. -The Roman dodecahedron had 12 flat pentagon-shaped faces with a knob protruding on each corner. It might have been a dice, a kid's toy, a candle holder, a simple decoration, a measuring device on the battlefield, or an astronomical instrument, to name a few. -The Phaistos Disk was made from clay and measures about 6.2 inches in diameter. Experts concluded that it was a prayer to an ancient Minoan goddess. -The formula of Greek fire was a well-guarded state secret for over 7 centuries. Greek fire was used in naval warfare. -Blades made from Damascus steel were the most sought after in medieval Europe. And that's because they were the best swords at the time. -The Iron pillar of Delhi dates back to the Gupta period, which lasted from about 240 to 590 C.E. A small amount of rust has started to form, but it is strange that there isn't more. -Viking Ulfberht swords are believed to have been made around 800 to 1,000 C.E., but experts were sure that the technology used to make swords of such extraordinary quality didn't come around until 800 years later. -The Voynich manuscript has 240 pages broken up into four sections: herbal, astrological, balneological, and pharmacological. There have literally been dozens of failed attempts to crack this thing. -In 132 C.E., Zhang Heng, a Chinese inventor, astronomer, engineer, scientist, scholar, and artist, invented a seismoscope and presented it to the Han court as an instrument for measuring seasonal winds and the Earth's movements. -The Antikythera mechanism was retrieved by a group of divers in 1900 and has been dubbed “the world's first analog computer” and it was made around 200 B.C.E.

Send us a Text Message.Could ancient civilizations have possessed advanced knowledge or even encountered extraterrestrial beings? Our latest episode features Aaron Long, a renowned expert in Mesopotamian archaeology and Ice Age geology, as we scrutinize the Antikythera mechanism, the Baghdad battery, the Istanbul rocket, and other out-of-place artifacts that challenge conventional historical timelines. Aaron shares his insights and recent work on the Ancient Astronaut Theory, offering a compelling narrative that may reshape the way we think about ancient history and extraterrestrial influences.Prepare to be intrigued as we delve into the technological mysteries of ancient artifacts, such as a Neanderthal skull with an unexplained hole and the enigmatic Ubaid figurines, which sport reptilian features. We discuss the possible existence of intelligent beings or their symbolic representations in ancient cultures and connect these artifacts with ancient civilizations like the kingdom of Urartu and their association of godliness with attributes such as the ability to traverse the skies. The episode also investigates the Istanbul rocket and its fascinating ties to these ancient stories of celestial travel.Our exploration doesn't stop there. We dissect the mysteries surrounding the precision-crafted Schist disk from Egypt's First Dynasty and the Piri Reis map, a 16th-century chart that controversially depicts Antarctica without ice. Could these artifacts suggest lost technologies or forgotten histories? We also entertain the possibility of unearthing massive alien artifacts buried beneath the Earth's surface, pondering historical and geological evidence that hints at larger, hidden relics. Join us for this thought-provoking journey as we widen our understanding of ancient mysteries and their potential extraterrestrial connections."Space Journey" by Geoff HarveyCopyright © 2021 Melody Loops LPFull License Royalty-Free Music https://www.melodyloops.com Support the Show.Visit our website
Stephen Wolfram answers questions from his viewers about the history of science and technology as part of an unscripted livestream series, also available on YouTube here: https://wolfr.am/youtube-sw-qa Questions include: Is there a directionality to science and technology? - Has anyone sort of applied the hacker mentality to the Antikythera mechanism to figure out what else you could use it for? What kind of uses could a time-traveling von Neumann figure out? - What is the likelihood that ancient tech we've discovered had vastly different uses than what we believe? - Southeast Asia is terrible for archeology because you can make almost anything from bamboo: tens of thousands of years ago, people obviously used wood etc., but only stone remains. - What does that say going forward, with our fast-rotting bits, in contrast with stone or wood, or even paper? - Any thoughts on the ancient dodecahedra? Do you have one? - Who started research on the periodic tables? Can you discuss a bit about its development? - What motivated the advent of the fast Fourier transform algorithm? What was its creator wanting to solve? - How advanced did analog computers get before we moved to digital computers? Was there any debate on whether we shouldn't move to digital at the time? - Why did modern formal logic take so long to develop historically, compared to other branches of mathematics or physical sciences? What explains the delay until the mid-nineteenth century? - Is there any knowledge in physics today that has been influenced by ancient texts like the Vedas etc.?

Klerksdorp spheres are small, spherical to disc-shaped objects that were found in 3-billion-year-old deposits in South Africa, and they've sparked a lot of mystery and debate. Pseudoscientists claim they must have been made by intelligent beings because they seem so out of place. Geologists say they're just the result of natural processes. There are other mysterious historical finds too, like the Antikythera mechanism, which is an ancient Greek analog computer, and the Baghdad Battery, which might have been used to generate electrical current thousands of years ago.

What challenges can the ocean help us meet, and what must we do to safeguard its treasures? The Underworld author Susan Casey dives deep for answers here! What We Discuss with Susan Casey: The ocean plays a crucial role in regulating the Earth's climate and serves as the largest carbon sink on the planet, making its preservation essential for mitigating climate change. The ocean is home to a fascinating array of creatures that have adapted to extreme conditions, such as iron-breathing microbes, glass sponges, and jellyfish that can reverse their life cycle. Pollution, including plastics, chemical weapons, and nuclear waste, has severely impacted the ocean ecosystem, with some deep-sea creatures found to have plastic particles embedded in their organs. There are an estimated three million shipwrecks on the ocean floor, preserving valuable historical artifacts and information — such as the Antikythera mechanism, an ancient Greek analog computer. Exploring the ocean can lead to groundbreaking discoveries in medicine, Earth's history, and climate, providing valuable insights for addressing humanity's challenges — provided we safeguard this treasury of knowledge for current and future generations.

Hi friends, we're busy with some spring cleaning this week. We'll have a new episode for you in two weeks. In the meanwhile, enjoy this pick from our archives! _____ [originally aired Nov 30, 2022] When we talk about AI, we usually fixate on the future. What's coming next? Where is the technology going? How will artificial intelligences reshape our lives and worlds? But it's also worth looking to the past. When did the prospect of manufactured minds first enter the human imagination? When did we start building robots, and what did those early robots do? What are the deeper origins, in other words, not only of artificial intelligences themselves, but of our ideas about those intelligences? For this episode, we have two guests who've spent a lot of time delving into the deeper history of AI. One is Adrienne Mayor; Adrienne is a Research Scholar in the Department of Classics at Stanford University and the author of the 2018 book, Gods and Robots: Myths, Machines, and Ancient Dreams of Technology. Our second guest is Elly Truitt; Elly is Associate Professor in the History & Sociology of Science at the University of Pennsylvania and the author of the 2015 book, Medieval Robots: Mechanism, Magic, Nature, and Art. In this conversation, we draw on Adrienne's expertise in the classical era and Elly's expertise in the medieval period to dig into the surprisingly long and rich history of AI. We discuss some of the very first imaginings of artificial beings in Greek mythology, including Talos, the giant robot guarding the island of Crete. We talk about some of the very first historical examples of automata, or self-moving devices; these included statues that spoke, mechanical birds that flew, thrones that rose, and clocks that showed the movements of the heavens. We also discuss the long-standing and tangled relationships between AI and power, exoticism, slavery, prediction, and justice. And, finally, we consider some of the most prominent ideas we have about AI today and whether they had precedents in earlier times. This is an episode we've been hoping to do for some time now, to try to step back and put AI in a much broader context. It turns out the debates we're having now, the anxieties and narratives that swirl around AI today, are not so new. In some cases, they're millennia old. Alright friends, now to my conversation with Elly Truitt and Adrienne Mayor. Enjoy! A transcript of this episode is available here. Notes and links 4:00 – See Adrienne's TedEd lesson about Talos, the “first robot.” See also Adrienne's 2019 talk for the Long Now Foundation. 7:15 – The Throne of Solomon does not survive, but it was often rendered in art, for example in this painting by Edward Poynter. 12:00 – For more on Adrienne's broader research program, see her website; for more on Elly's research program, see her website. 18:00 – For more on the etymology of ‘robot,' see here. 23:00 – A recent piece about Aristotle's writings on slavery. 26:00 – An article about the fact that Greek and Roman statues were much more colorful than we think of them today. 30:00 – A recent research article about the Antikythera mechanism. 34:00 – See Adrienne's popular article about the robots that guarded the relics of the Buddha. 38:45 – See Elly's article about how automata figured prominently in tombs. 47:00 – See Elly's recent video lecture about mechanical clocks and the “invention of time.” For more on the rise of mechanistic thinking—and clocks as important metaphors in that rise—see Jessica Riskin's book, The Restless Clock. 50:00 – An article about a “torture robot” of ancient Sparta. 58:00 – A painting of the “Iron Knight” in Spenser's The Faerie Queene.

On this episode, we discuss the Antikythera Mechanism, a device found in a Roman shipwreck off the Greek Island of Antijythera. Retrieved with several other treasures, due to it's advanced state of petrification and other issues, it wasn't even looked at much after it was initially brought up. But over time, people have discovered this uncanny device that simulates the movement of the heavens created in the time of Before Common Era using a differential gear which otherwise doesn't show up for another 1300 years. We discuss the devices discovery and the theories about it in this man learning stuff is fun episode of the Family Plot Podcast!Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/family-plot--4670465/support.

La Máquina Antikythera, un asombroso artefacto descubierto en las aguas cercanas a la isla de Anticitera en 1901, ha cautivado la imaginación y desafiado las comprensiones tradicionales de la antigüedad. Fechada alrededor del 100 a.C., esta enigmática construcción de bronce y madera revela un nivel sorprendente de conocimientos técnicos y astronómicos en una era considerada por muchos como carente de avances tecnológicos sofisticados. Compuesta por una intrincada red de engranajes y con inscripciones que sugieren cálculos astronómicos, la Máquina Antikythera ha suscitado debates entre arqueólogos e historiadores sobre su propósito original: ¿un dispositivo astronómico para predecir eventos celestiales, una herramienta de navegación avanzada o quizás una combinación de ambos? Este intrigante artefacto no solo despierta preguntas sobre la tecnología antigua, sino que también abre ventanas a la posibilidad de conocimientos perdidos en la historia que aún aguardan ser descubiertos. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Antena Historia te regala 30 días PREMIUM, para que lo disfrutes https://www.ivoox.com/premium?affiliate-code=b4688a50868967db9ca413741a54cea5 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Produce Antonio Cruz Edita ANTENA HISTORIA Antena Historia (podcast) forma parte del sello iVoox Originals ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- web……….https://antenahistoria.com/ correo.....info@antenahistoria.com Facebook…..Antena Historia Podcast | Facebook Twitter…...https://twitter.com/AntenaHistoria Telegram…...https://t.me/foroantenahistoria DONACIONES PAYPAL...... https://paypal.me/ancrume ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ¿QUIERES ANUNCIARTE en ANTENA HISTORIA?, menciones, cuñas publicitarias, programas personalizados, etc. Dirígete a Antena Historia - AdVoices Escucha el episodio completo en la app de iVoox, o descubre todo el catálogo de iVoox Originals
Kate Adie presents stories from Israel, Guatemala, The Philippines, Greece and the Faroe IslandsUS Secretary of State Anthony Blinken is in the Middle East for another round of crisis diplomacy. After the assassination of a senior Hamas leader this week, there are now concerns the conflict will widen. Tom Bateman has just left his post in the Middle East and is now covering US foreign policy from Washington - which as he reflects - might have to draw on some lessons from history.Ahead of his inauguration next weekend, Bernardo Arevalo, Guatemala's President-elect, has had to contend with a series of attempts to prevent him from taking power. His victory in elections last year confounded all expectations, and was widely seen as a repudiation of Guatemala's political elite, which has been dogged by corruption allegations for many years. But, the country's democratic future is still hanging in the balance, says Rory Sullivan.Linda Pressly meets with a Catholic priest and a forensic pathologist in the Philippines, who are exhuming the remains of victims of Rodrigo Duterte's war on drugs. In the process they discover evidence that points to a very different version of events to the official line.Heidi Fuller-Love visits the Greek island, Antikythera, whose remote and idyllic setting is its greatest allure for visitors, but it also poses its biggest challenge for the small number of residents there. Now the Greek government is paying people 500 euros to live there.And finally - Tim Ecott reports from the Faroe Islands of the North Atlantic where residents are trying to conserve their land and traditions in the face of an influx of tourists.Series Producer: Serena Tarling Editor: Richard Vadon Production Coordinator: Gemma Ashman

“Have we learnt nothing from the history of geology?” The Panel of Peril rise from their slumber on the living chair, shirtless, and scream at their neighbours to turn that ruddy music down! They have a guest panellist in legendary comedy writer David Quantick (Harry Hill's TV Burp, The Thick Of It, Danger Mouse, Veep et al), and a film to watch: Indiana Jones and The Dial of Destiny (James Mangold, 2023). 1969: Indy (Harrison Ford) is confronted by the ghosts of his past as goddaughter Helena (Phoebe Waller-Bridge) and Dr. Voller (Mads Mikkelsen) come back into his life. Both seek the mysterious Antikythera, or Archimedes' Dial, which will either fetch a high price at market or provide Operation Paperclip sorts with the means to change the course of World War 2! Watch the trailer here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eQfMbSe7F2g ********PLOT SPOILER ALERT******** Voller believes that the Dial possesses the means to travel back in time, and he plans to win the war for the Nazis. How? Seeing him as the weakest link in the master race's plot for world domination, the good Doctor plans on assassinating one Adolf Hitler! Can he reunite the two halves of the all-powerful antique or will he be foiled by our whip-cracking hero and his latest batch of sidekicks? What did the panel think of this week's movie? How can they improve upon the villain's masterplan? And what song did David Quantick hear Rob Brydon sing during a showbiz party?

On this episode of the world famous Sofa King Podcast, we talk about the ultimate brain baller, Archimedes. He was born in 287 BC, but he was a genius the likes of which the world has seldom known. The cool stuff was his machines. He created giant claws that could scoop attacking ships out of the sea, advanced catapults, ballista that could throw whole trees, and allegedly a heat ray that set ships on fire, as well as the world's first analog computer. But his real genius was in mathematics. He is said to be one of the all-time greats, a thousand years or more ahead of his time. The inventions and discoveries of Archimedes make him one of the smartest humans in the history of the species.

Indy Month may be over but we still have Indy Fever and now it's HOT INDY SUMMER! We've got one more Indiana Jones episode in us and this week we are talking all about that crazy Archimedes dial! What's the real history behind it and just what does it do in the movie? What's up with the dates and why is time travel so right for this story? PLUS : listen as we go over all the little fun things we forgot to talk about last time like Helena's expert sandwich snacking skills and our hero, the sleeping guy in the plane! So, go back to Alabama and listen today!
