Made it to the Annual meeting in Detroit! What a beautiful midwest city. YES, I did watch 8 Mile on the plane, a 2002 middle school classic and an important film that captures the 1990s lpw income and rap battle culture, but the history as well of Detroit. Keep checking out the VC stories this week as I participate on the Field Visits: Detroit Urban Forest, Historic Markners Church of Detroit, and Black Civil Rights 1920-1970! - Third Gen 🕵️👩💻

A Love Letter to Ptolemy’s Geographia: Standing on the Shoulders of Giants 🖤🤍 As someone who has long been captivated by the evolution of human knowledge, few subjects encapsulate our collective journey of discovery like the history of cartography. In the grand tapestry of mapping our world, few figures loom as large as Claudius Ptolemy—a Greco-Roman scholar whose seminal work, Geographia, laid the cornerstone for modern mapmaking and spatial analysis. Today, I want to celebrate that pioneering spirit and reflect on how his legacy has shaped how we see our world. - David Price Article link in bio https://experience.arcgis.com/experience/1b105a4a164f4d99a3f8ff4a4243f929/page/Love-Letter-to-Ptolemy-Feb-2025/?draft=true
