MetaState: Science Since Babylon, Part 10 - The Technology of the Gaps

The 1des 0f 1deas - A podcast by Jeremy Bentham

Categories:

Covering all of Chapter 6, Price considers a more granular take on the great contributions of scientific discovery.  A visually-dependent portion of the book, you may also enjoy consulting my own visual confection experiment of Price's work here. What is the difference between science and technology? What sort of tests would one take to make it into Edison's lab? Can 10,000 technologists brute force their way unto the level of a mad scientist? How many researches does it take to create a light bulb? How has society plunged pragmatically with it's view of science-minded denizen? Research has morphed from dark and dreary room with but a bodkin to lavish cocktail parties and scribbled dinner napkins. The velocity of scientific research and revolution appears somewhat proportional to a similar revolutions in the means of performing of such research and experiment. Mushroom culture be damned! --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/jeremy-bentham/support
