Steam Powered Frisbee 🥏In 2008, a pile of old junk was found under floorboards in an Austrian castle. VERY old junk - from the 1400s. It included several pieces of linen, which unlike wool or silk, usually decays quickly.More specifically they found women's underwear, which is virtually never mentioned in surviving medieval texts. The discovery pushed back the invention of the bra by *several hundred years*. It's very modern looking. The US patent for bras only goes back to 1914. At the earliest something like modern bras were thought to be worn in France in the late 1700s.<a href="https://newsonhistory.blogspot.com/2013/06/discovery-of-600-year-old-lingerie_30.html" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://newsonhistory.blogspot.com/2013/06/discovery-of-600-year-old-lingerie_30.html</a><a href="https://hear-me.social/tags/culturalhistory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#culturalhistory</a> <a href="https://hear-me.social/tags/textilehistory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#textilehistory</a> <a href="https://hear-me.social/tags/archaeology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#archaeology</a> <a href="https://hear-me.social/tags/bras" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#bras</a> <a href="https://hear-me.social/tags/lingerie" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#lingerie</a> <a href="https://hear-me.social/tags/womenshistory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#womenshistory</a>

ZfdGToday's contribution seeks to answer the question of how the history of the visual representation of temporal processes can be captured, and how the emergence of the statistical time series graph has influenced our ideas about time, history, and stories: »On the Cultural History of Time Series Graphs« by Botond Szemes <a href="https://zfdg.de/2024_001" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://zfdg.de/2024_001</a><a href="https://fedihum.org/tags/visualization" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#visualization</a> <a href="https://fedihum.org/tags/timeline" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#timeline</a> <a href="https://fedihum.org/tags/dh" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#dh</a> <a href="https://fedihum.org/tags/culturalhistory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#culturalhistory</a> <a href="https://fedihum.org/tags/dh" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#dh</a> <a href="https://fedihum.org/tags/openaccess" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#openaccess</a> <a href="https://fedihum.org/tags/digitalhumanities" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#digitalhumanities</a> <a href="https://fedihum.org/tags/graphics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#graphics</a> <a href="https://fedihum.org/@DHd" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@DHd</a> <a href="https://fedihum.org/@MWWForschung" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@MWWForschung</a> <a href="https://openbiblio.social/@hab_wf" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@hab_wf</a>

jonathan w. y. gray 🐨“I think a certain optimism is required. A pessimism of the intellect, optimism of the will, Gramsci said. That means hard thought, hard graft, recognising what the world is like, recognising the way the terrain is set against you, and then remembering the openness of history, and seeing whether one can intervene” Stuart Hall in John Akomfrah’s expansive 2013 film which we watched last night 🍿📽🌒 <a href="https://player.bfi.org.uk/subscription/film/watch-the-stuart-hall-project-2013-online" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://player.bfi.org.uk/subscription/film/watch-the-stuart-hall-project-2013-online</a><a href="https://post.lurk.org/tags/culturalstudies" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#culturalstudies</a> <a href="https://post.lurk.org/tags/stuarthall" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#stuarthall</a> <a href="https://post.lurk.org/tags/mediastudies" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#mediastudies</a> <a href="https://post.lurk.org/tags/commodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#commodon</a> <a href="https://post.lurk.org/tags/culturalhistory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#culturalhistory</a> <a href="https://post.lurk.org/tags/film" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#film</a> <a href="https://post.lurk.org/tags/sociology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#sociology</a> <a href="https://post.lurk.org/tags/newleft" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#newleft</a> <a href="https://post.lurk.org/tags/movienight" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#movienight</a>
