Our note
A Portuguese-language timeline, "A história da humanidade em rabiscos", in which a small pencil-carrying character draws its way along a line through sixteen panels, each in the medium of its era. Fire is a cave painting, the wheel a clay tablet, the pyramids an Egyptian mural and democracy a black-figure vase. Later come a mosaic aqueduct, an illuminated castle, a woodcut press, navigation charts, a locomotive blueprint, Art Nouveau and Art Deco posters, a halftone Moon landing, an 8-bit computer, an early desktop for the internet, and graph paper for AI. It ends on a grid of all sixteen. No prompt was shared.
