Antikythera exhibition in Paris

Dear colleagues,
We are delighted to announce that the "Antikythera Mechanism" exhibition has moved to Paris, at the Musée des Arts et Métiers. A model of the Antikythera Mechanism, built by the Aristotle University in Greece, together with 17th and 18th centuries astronomical clocks, and the modern mechanism of a watch inspired by the Antikythera Mechanism and designed by Hublot, will be on display. A film in 3D created by the Swiss film-maker Philippe Nicolet will narrate the story of the Antikythera Mechanism. A 2D version of this film can be watched here:
