Autochrome

b: a stained-glass window
What: "It yielded a grainy, positive image of muted pastels on a glass plate: a stained-glass window of the recent past". Check out the link.

METAMIA is a free database of analogy and metaphor. Anyone can contribute or search. The subject matter can be anything. Science is popular, but poetry is encouraged. The goal is to integrate our fluid muses with the stark literalism of a relational database. Metamia is like a girdle for your muses, a cognitive girdle.
