• “[This Device] appealed at once to the
eye and to the ear, thus naturally
forming the habit of attention, which
is so difficult to form by the study of
books. Whenever the pupil will not
fully understand [it] will have the
opportunity of enlarging and making
more intelligible.”

• “[These instruments are] not
uncommon, but are little resorted to by
the teacher.”

... networked proximity facilitates new kinds
of spatially unbound community, and that
these emerging forms of sociality are equally
