Book Synopsis The Helmholtz Curves by : Henning Schmidgen
Book excerpt: This publication reconstructs the emergence of the phenomenon of 'lost time', i.e. the gap between stimulus and response, by engaging with two of the most significant time experts of the 19th century: the German physiologist Hermann von Helmholtz (1821-1894) and the French writer Marcel Proust (1871-1922). It argues that the discovery and explanation of this phenomenon was closely tied to the functioning of laboratory technologies.
