A witty, exhilarating and mind-expanding exploration of the word of our times - data - with mathematician Dr Hannah Fry. Following in the footsteps of BBC Four's previous gleefully nerdy, award-winning maths films The Joy of Stats, Tails you Win - The Science of Chance and The Joy of Logic, this new high-tech romp reveals exactly what data is and how it is captured, stored, shared and made sense of. Fry also tells the story of the engineers of the data age, people most of us have never heard of despite the fact they brought about a technological and philosophical revolution.
For Hannah Fry, the joy of data is all about spotting patterns. She's Lecturer in the Mathematics of Cities at UCL as well as being the presenter of the BBC series Trainspotting Live and City in the Sky, and she sees data as the essential bridge between two universes - the tangible, noisy, messy world that we see and experience, and the clean, ordered, elegant world of maths, where everything can be captured beautifully with equations.
Along the way the film reveals the connection between Scrabble scores and online movie streaming, explains why a herd of Wiltshire dairy cows are wearing pedometers, and uncovers the remarkable network map of Wikipedia. What's the mystery link between 'marmalade' and 'One Direction'?
The Joy of Data also hails the giant contribution of Claude Shannon, the American mathematician and electrical engineer who, in an attempt to solve the problem of noisy telephone lines, devised a way to digitise all information. It was Shannon, father of the 'bit', who singlehandedly launched the 'information age'. Meanwhile, the green lawns of Britain's National Physical Laboratory host a race between its young apprentices in order to demonstrate how and why data moves quickly and successfully around modern data networks. It's all thanks to the brilliant technique first invented there in the 1960s by Welshman Donald Davies - packet switching - without which there would be no internet as we know it.
But what of the future, big data and artificial intelligence? Should we be worried by the pace of change, and what our own data could and should be used for? Ultimately, Fry concludes, data has empowered all of us. We must have machines at our side if we're to find patterns in the modern-day data deluge. But, Fry believes, regardless of AI and machine learning, it will always take us to find the meaning in them.
很久没有静下心看过一部电影了，很喜欢这种纯粹质朴的情感，平凡又不平凡的人们。
理查德·林克莱特的少年时代，美国六十年代流行文化万花筒。不过终究是属于别人的。想想我们的六十年代，真是羡慕不来。。
看到孩子们渴求知识和种种艰苦表现真的很心疼，煽情程度刚刚好没有太过太“肉麻”。
Back in the time when American people live the American Dream.
全片最无趣的部分反而是最后登月的过程，虽然导演巧妙的把两次登月的时空画面交织剪辑。对60年代美国文化、娱乐记忆的描绘十分有趣，让人不禁感叹：或许那才是最好的时代。迷影向的私货多到看完这部片立刻列了一个老电影名单准备看起来。
还有那独特的秀美风光引人入胜过目难忘，充满了无限期待。
解说真好，年代感出来了，我那个年代小学吃着太阳锅巴和着北冰洋，坐桌子上离着1米五的衣柜上的小黑白电视很近的，看着一只吸血鸭子的动画片，还有圣斗士星矢，我是希瑞（股眼泡曼泰纳），还有中午下学吃饭听杨家将的评书还能记得挖坟吃小孩屁股后臀尖，下学玩的水果刀画格子记分名叫“掇刀”，秋天杨树叶子根茎藏臭球鞋里捂着互相拔根玩看谁的结实，小摊买洋画都是什么大仙这老祖姜子牙什么的，用剪子一张一张剪了窝一下好拍，夏天爬树上有红色的虫子一点它屁股跳的特别远叫大炮。
站在当下的十字路口，目之所及只有痛苦与绝望，的确让人想要回望那个很傻很天真的少年时代。正是在这样的背景下，林克莱特再次用真人与动画结合的手法，在大量的生活剪影中插入一点点幻想，半真半假间带着观众回到1969年的美国，那时的一切都朝气蓬勃欣欣向荣，人们乐观地相信未来，但梦幻的少年时代，只是记忆增添的滤镜，不义战争、种族歧视与性别压迫，社会危机一直都在，一如当下，或许新的风暴正在酝酿中，只是我们是否有勇气像半个世纪前的人一样奋起反抗呢？这个只能等待时间来回答了。
这部片段是在订阅号上面刷到的，被吸引到了，于是特意充了年会员去看的。影片简单剧情不拖沓，节奏很好。导演很会放大细节，从头至尾不落一秒的片子，很值得一看，近几年难得的好电影，十分全给！
看到好的电影就迟迟走不出来，这部电影也是，看完了好久，还是忍不住重温，藏区孩子们的淳朴真的打动到我了
画风并不吸引人，反而是里面那些六七十年代美国的片段和记忆，尤为珍贵，好像一切都距离未来很近。其实中国也有过这种时期，那是八十年代。
散文化的叙述，讲述那个时代的许许多多熟悉的事情，但没有一个片段可以称得上故事。情感怀旧浅白。
有一说一，这个男主还是挺好看的嘛，不过被狼王追赶，这剧情实在是让我意想不到啊
独白讲述童年，算是一部那个年代的纪录片，这个童年恰逢登月，身边的很多人参与其中，所有人都在关注它，它成为了记忆的一部分，孩子们幻想自己就是阿姆斯特朗，童年有太多值得怀念，登月只是其中很小一部分。
那时的他们，相信世界一定会越来越好的。
当我们被银幕上的各种奇观包围，被荧幕上那么多商业片洗脑，仿佛眼中填塞的尽是些大鱼大肉，这时候这部电影仿佛一股子清流，洗净了我们身上所有的铅华！
被狼追那里虽然挺艰难的，但是还是觉得有点莫名其妙的搞笑，现在的藏区应该不会这样了吧？
把登月成功这样一个主旋律题材电影拍成这样，一群孩子瞎逗瞎玩，抢电视，追环卫车，吃凉午餐，就连看登月成功的高潮戏，一家人也是冷漠到该睡觉睡觉，所以说啊，美国必亡。这凝聚力就不如咱这边。。。
The golden years always in the past.
美国六十年代还是很强的呀，中产生活有奔头，不过今时不同往日了。
