La bibliothèque de l'imagination humaine de Jay Walker

Jay Walker, conservateur de la Bibliothèque de l'Imagination Humaine, offre une surprenante démonstration, mettant en exergue quelques-uns des objets intrigants qui firent le décor de la scène de TED 2008.

Imagination thrives on the artifacts and stories that have shaped human history, from meteorites that formed our planet to a Sputnik satellite and a moon-flown Apollo flag. The real driver behind the spread of the printing press was not literacy but the mass production of indulgences during the 15th century. A three-story library filled with objects like an Enigma machine and DNA models becomes a living tribute to the power of connections. Every leap in human discovery, whether in science or art, begins by seeing familiar things in new ways.
