Exploring Cultural Moments With Google Arts and Culture

 

Have you ever wondered which came first, the chicken or the egg? This question has been around for a long time and depending on which source your want to believe it could be either or maybe even both. That's what makes it a great question, there might be more than right answer! This can lead to more questions! I Know I don't know the right answer and I hope I am not disappointing too much by telling you now that this is not what this post is about. If you are only interested in the chicken and the egg,  I think this site has the best answer I've read. Right or wrong? You get to decide. 

A new experiment from Google Art's and Culture is the reason why the chicken and the egg question entered my consciousness. I  think this experiment could serve as a quick digital brain break or maybe as a jumping off point for a research project. I also think the answers can lead to more questions for the curious at heart! Be sure to also explore the additional Arts and Culture Experiments linked at the end of this post.
