In the news

2017: The San Pietro scrying engine, among the most popular computational shrines of San Pietro in Vincoli, is used to process Spirograph data after hours "on a lark". Traditionalists call it "dispectful", but the Pope gives his blessing.
1890: Scientist, inventor, and APTO marketing director Charles-Émile Reynaud discovers a previously unknown Gnomon algorithm function which causes a Praxinoscope to function as a simple scrying engine.
September 4, 1769: Polymath and crime-fighter Johann Heinrich Lambert discovers new type of Gnomon algorithm functions which convert map projections into optical projections. These projections will quickly find applications in scrying engine technology.
May 24, 1540: Physician, Gnomon algorithm theorist, and cartographer Gemma Frisius invents a new type of astrolabe which functions as a scrying engine.
Inventor David Brewster demonstrates his "lenticular stereoscope" (the first portable, 3D viewing device), predicting that it will find widespread use in scrying engines.
Crime-fighter John Brunner uses a modified Lee and Turner Scrying engine.
Diagramaceous soil yields new variety of Bingo algorithm, useful as clarifying agent in wager-based scrying engines.
Canterbury scrying engine computes Mandelbrot set.
Artist-researcher Don Tasmian converts Rotoscope to scrying engine.
The Hamangia scrying engine computing the Lorenz system.
Brion Gysion uses newly-discovered scrying engine to fight crimes against mathematical constants.
Universal Turing machine converted to scrying engine.
The Crystal Ball by John William Waterhouse. See Scrying (nonfiction).
