Flights of Thought
Brendan Griffen attempts to map the relationships of influence between all of history’s big thinkers, likely inspired by Circles of Influence.
“It really is fascinating (to me at least) to start at one node and bounce along the connections to a distantly related someone else. People in philosophy influencing fantasy writers who influence comedians. It shows one thing above all: the evolution of ideas is a non-linear process. We too, are somewhere in this web, albeit at a smaller scale. We too, are the sum of many.”
