Last month, Paul Iversen, associate professor and chair of the Department of Classics at Case Western Reserve University, gave a general talk about the Antikythera mechanism, a 2,100-year-old ancient Greek device widely considered the world's first analog computer, at Max-Planck Institute für Wissenschaftsgeschichte in Berlin.
During Iversen’s presentation, titled “See through Greek time: The Antikythera mechanism in 3D,” audience members had the opportunity to view a 3D model made at Interactive Commons using extended reality (XR) glasses.
