Culture G is a great idea from three Sciences Po alumni that allows in the blink of an eye to find cultural references in a multitude of themes on a multitude of media. Ideal to avoid getting lost in endless research and complete a course or revisions intelligently.
A search engine to find things to see, read, listen to
Culture G is a search engine that allows you to find references by crossing categories. The tool is very simple to understand. Filters are classified into columns. You first choose the medium. You can search for movies, documentaries, TV shows, series, articles, novels, comics, podcasts or songs. The choice is made quickly by ticking one or more boxes.
You can then choose the subject History, Geography, Economy, Politics … then a geographical area and even the time that consulting the resource could take you. Play with the checkmarks to enlarge or refine your search. The results are displayed in real time in the form of small thumbnails with a visual and a few comment sentences on the resource.
When it comes to a movie, a button allows you to access the trailer, for songs or podcasts a link allows you to listen to them most of the time.
A free and participatory search engine
The other idea of the initiators of this project is to make it a collaborative resource. In other words, everyone is called upon to bring their own small (or large )) stone to the building by offering references that will complement the shelves of this open library. Only constraint to see his contribution accepted I quote "that it really fascinated you! Life is too short to read and watch "not bad" things. We can only agree!
Culture G was conceived for a launch in June. Given the circumstances, the project leaders decided to launch it without a front net to stick to the lockdown period. As a result, the paint is still fresh and there may be some sections or it is still in the boxes but the main thing is there. It's a really good idea. CultureG is free and ad-free.
