    ¿Sabían que el primer prototipo de ratón de computadora, presentado públicamente el 9 de diciembre de 1968, consistía en una carcasa tallada en madera de abeto con un solo botón rojo en la parte superior?

    Este dispositivo fue diseñado por Douglas Engelbart y construido por el ingeniero Bill English en el Instituto de Investigación de Stanford (SRI) como parte de un sistema llamado oN-Line System (NLS). A diferencia de los modelos actuales que utilizan sensores ópticos o láseres, este mecanismo funcionaba mediante dos ruedas metálicas dispuestas perpendicularmente en la base que registraban el movimiento en los ejes X e Y sobre la superficie.

    El término "mouse" fue acuñado de manera informal por los investigadores del laboratorio debido a que el cable de salida, que originalmente se ubicaba en la parte posterior del dispositivo, recordaba a la cola de un roedor. Durante la histórica exhibición conocida como "La madre de todas las demostraciones", Engelbart utilizó este periférico de madera para interactuar con hipertexto, gráficos y ventanas compartidas, sentando las bases de la interfaz gráfica de usuario moderna. El diseño original fue patentado en 1970 bajo el nombre técnico de "Indicador de posición X-Y para un sistema de pantalla", aunque la patente expiró antes de que el ratón se convirtiera en un estándar comercial masivo con la llegada de la Macintosh en 1984.

    Important thoughts by #DouglasEngelbart on symbols and their role in human life. I was not part of your discussion, but I found it illuminating. Thank you for sharing.

    I realise that Engelbart refers to all sorts of symbols, not soecifically art, but reading his reflections urged me to look up #PrehistoricArt here on the Fedi.

  16. Die unscheinbare Erfindung, die das Personal Computing veränderte
    Im November 1970 erhielt ein Gerät mit dem Namen „X-Y-Positionsanzeiger für ein Anzeigesystem“ ein Patent. Kaum jemand ahnte damals, wie stark dies unsere Interaktion mit Computern revolutionieren würde.
