Miracle of computers

Post by silky »

Hope you enjoy this one- it's interesting to see all that is included. It would prove invaluable assistance to anyone studying history or biographies.

Well worth saving for students.

Now take a look at this picture painted by three Chinese Artists, Dai Dudu, Li Tiezi and Zhang An, in 2006. This painting is truly remarkable. Even more amazing though, is that the canvas has been computerized. When you click on the link below, a much bigger version of the computerized painting appears. Run your cursor over the people. The programme tells you who they are - every single one of them. BUT (click on a person) and you obtain the individual’s life history.

This is fascinating... Can keep you busy for hours!

As you say, fascinating. It would take literally hours to read about each of the people in the painting.
A very clever idea. )t'
