Try  this one- it's interesting to see.  It may  prove invaluable assistance to anyone studying history or biographies.





Now take a look at this picture.....




http://cliptank.com/PeopleofInfluencePainting.htm




Painted by Chinese Artists, Dai Dudu, Li Tiezi and Zhang An, oil on canvas, 2006.




This painting is truly remarkable. Even more amazing though, is that the canvas has been computerized. 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 individualbs life history.

This is fascinating

Dirk,

not only the lifes of the highlight individuals of history, but of every individual on earth! (let's say from the age of 6 Wink ...)

See my thread: Are we back to the Thirties?

From the message of 11 october 22h:

"From the wiki about Cambridge Analitica:
CA's data analysis methods were to a large degree based on the academic work of Michal Kosinski. In 2008, Kosinski had joined the Psychometrics Centre of Cambridge University where he then developed with his colleagues a profiling system using general online data, Facebook-likes, and smartphone data.[45][46] He showed that with a limited number of "likes", people can be analysed better than friends or relatives can do and that individual psychological targeting is a powerful tool to influence people.[45]
CA would collect data on voters using sources such as demographics, consumer behaviour, internet activity, and other public and private sources. According to The Guardian, CA used psychological data derived from millions of Facebook users, largely without users' permission or knowledge.[47] Another source of information was the "Cruz Crew" mobile app that tracked physical movements and contacts and according to the Associated Press, invaded personal data more than previous presidential campaign apps.[48]

Quote :Today in the United States we have somewhere close to four or five thousand data points on every individual ... So we model the personality of every adult across the United States, some 230 million people.
— Alexander Nix, chief executive of Cambridge Analytica, October 2016.[1]

Kind regards from Paul.
