You can send 1 book and 1 film back to Archimedes. Which? Anonymous Tue Aug 13 21:41:57 2019 No.10886157 [Reply] [Original]

If so, modernity's awesome.

If not, society's basically decided to throw you to the wolves to become one of the human characters on Wall-E

Book: Descartes' Geometry

Analytic geometry was the most important step in the development of modern science. Once you give that to Archimedes, he can figure out Calculus and Newtonian physics by himself.

Film: Kiki's Delivery Service

Because it's a beautiful anime and everybody should watch it.

I’d just send a note saying “nigga don’t disrespect the romans. Also, start a prophecy that Caesar will be assasinated by the senate. Don’t mind who Caesar is, just popularize it”.

That should be enough to have us conquering other galaxies by now.

Cheeky answer:
Book: a short booklet that explains how to use the movie display device
Film: a film that consist of all human knowledge as frames. Wikipedia, all books, patents, etc. We can get extra cheeky with the movie display device. In some of these frames we include blueprints for early machinery like steam engines in such a way that you can project or trace over them to make construction simple. If our movie display device is a projector we can include frames for masks for early CPUs and ROM for programs, meaning we can make get to the computer age very fast. If we have a projector we can also project spectra lines for comparison with diffraction data for all the elements to make identification faster. REALLY REALLY REALLY CHEEKY: using the movie display device to do stereolithography. Meaning you could have 3d printers before the transistor gets reinvented...

Screw the Movie
Usborne Illustrated Elementary Math Dictionary and a Atlas of the world that shows down to local areas. Make sure there is a bookmark on the location of his home town(Syracuse,Italy). Write in Attic Greek and Latin on that atlas page the statement : "Archimedes was born here 2300 years ago" hopefully he can figure it out from that. He should be able to recognize the shape of Sicily. That should kick things off.
