+Here's the file to list the authors of the pictures
+
+b001.jpg, r001.jpg:
+  Eyewire Catalogue, 1999 or before. It should be checked
+  whether there still exists a copyright on this, because
+  the original provider has disappeared (bankruptcy??)
+  several years ago.
+
+babbage.jpg :
+ (check provenance)
+Charles Babbage (1791-1871) is widely regarded as the first computer pioneer and 
+the great ancestral figure in the history of computing. Babbage excelled in a variety of 
+scientific and philosophical subjects though his present-day reputation rests largely 
+on the invention and design of his vast mechanical calculating engines. His 
+Analytical Engine conceived in 1834 is one of the startling intellectual feats of the 
+nineteenth century. The design of this machine possesses all the essential logical 
+features of the modern general purpose computer.

+lena.jpg:
+  Lena Sjööblom Soderberg, centerfold of Playboy 1972.11.
+  Researchers in infographics have extensively used that

+  apparently Playboy doesn't mind.

+  original source (?)

+
+teapot.png:
+  Researchers in infographics have also extensively used
+  that picture (actually the wireframe model). This is
+  (afaik) the original model, produced in the 1970's (?)
+  by one such researcher, and then was rendered in the
+  1990's using the Povray raytracer, and then bundled as
+  teapot.ppm in Tcl/Tk, and finally in 2001 I grabbed
+  that picture 
+
+test.mpeg:
+  unknown origin. Too small to be copyrightable.
+
+tux.tga.gz:
+  unknown origin.
