My hobby is collecting rare and obscure photos of historical and notable people together then adding them to my website where you can see how any two people can be connected through appearances captured in photos.
With this website I aim to make the close proximity of all living and recently alive people a fact you can visually process. Basically a “Oracle Of Bacon”/”Six Degrees Of Separation” visualizer.
Some interesting examples:
– James Joyce to Muhammad Ali in 3 photos
– Napoleon III to Ja Rule in 5 photos
– Grigori Rasputin to Lizzo in 6 photos
– Nikola Tesla to Elon Musk in 6 photos
– Charles Dickens to Frank Sinatra in 6 photos
I plan to add a user registration and submission system so you could add yourself with photos of anyone you have already on the network.
Any feedback is much appreciated!
