Troppo spesso le invenzioni fatte dalle donne vengono brevettate da un uomo e le inventrici riconosciute ufficialmente sono ancora troppo poche. Persino l'edizione speciale del gioco Monopoli, dedicato alle inventrici, dimentica di riconoscere la vera maternità del gioco, inventato da una donna. Tutti i link alla fine della pagina, dopo la traduzione in inglese. TRASCRIZIONE [English translation below] Donne in ascolto, se avete mai inventato qualcosa, correte subito all'ufficio brevetti per brevettarla e fate attenzione che non arrivi un maschio a rubarvi l'invenzione. Questo è quello che succede molto spesso quando una donna inventa qualcosa, dai tempi dei tempi. Ho scoperto qualche giorno fa che il dispositivo per segnalare nelle auto, le frecce, quelle che si mettono quando si deve girare, si deve fare una curva, sono state inventate da una donna, un'attrice, Florence Lawrens, nel 1915, un'attrice che doveva essere anche molto di successo perché all'epoca si acquistò una macchina con i suoi soldi, quindi grande libertà, grande indipendenza, e poi era una a cui piaceva anche mettere le mani nel motore, ripararsi la macchina eccetera, e inventò un dispositivo per segnalare quando doveva girare a destra o a sinistra. Purtroppo però Florence dimenticò di brevettare questo dispositivo, per cui poi arrivò il solito maschio che nel 1929 brevettò la segnalazione delle auto. Il nome del tipo non ve lo dico, peggio per lui che ha rubato l'idea alla nostra Florence. Florence tra l'altro veniva da una famiglia molto interessante, anche la madre era un inventrice, aveva inventato, qualche anno dopo che la figlia inventò e le frecce, inventò il tergicristallo per tenere il vetro della macchina pulito, quindi una famiglia fantastica di inventrice. Un'altra inventrice che è stata dimenticata è Lizzie Magie che inventò i Monopoli. Lo inventò all'inizio del Novecento, nel 1904, come un gioco che avrebbe dovuto dimostrare come con il capitalismo non vinceva nessuno, ma tutti perdevano. Lo brevettò anche, and all'ufficio brevetti, solo che poi lo vendette per una miseria, e qualcun altro, diversi anni più tardi, lo brevetto a suo nome, un altro maschio di cui non vi dico il nome. Una cosa interessante è che qualche anno fa Monopoli ha pubblicato un'edizione speciale dedicata alle donne inventrice, dove in ogni casella, anziché il nome della strada, c'è il nome di una inventrice. Manca però Lizzie Magie che inventò appunto il gioco dei Monopoli. Come siamo messi a invenzioni oggi? In Italia siamo messi maluccio solo il 14% delle donne va all'ufficio brevetti a brevettare l'invenzione, anche se devo dire che in Sardegna le cose vanno piuttosto bene perché la Sardegna è la prima regione in Italia per inventrici: il 27,9% delle invenzioni viene registrato da una donna, e la Sardegna è 5ª in Europa, quindi donne sarde inventrici continuate a inventare ma soprattutto continuate ad andare all'ufficio brevetti e mettere il vostro nome. Fate attenzione che qualche maschio non vi freghi l'invenzione. TRANSLATION Women listening, if you have ever invented something, run immediately to the patent office to patent it and be careful that a male does not come and steal your invention. This is what happens very often when a woman invents something, since time immemorial. I discovered a few days ago that the device for signaling cars, the indicators, the ones you put on when you have to turn, you take a curve, were invented by a woman, an actress, Florence Lawrens, in 1915, an actress who must have also been very successful because at the time she bought a car with her own money, therefore great freedom, great independence, and then she was someone who also liked to put her hands in the engine, repair her car, etc., and she invented a device to signal when he should turn right or left. Unfortunately, however, Florence forgot to patent this device, so then the usual male arrived who in 1929 patented the signaling of cars. I won't tell you the name of the guy, too bad for him who stole the idea from our Florence. Among other things, Florence came from a very interesting family, her mother was also an inventor, she invented, a few years after her daughter invented the indicators, she invented the windshield wiper to keep the glass of the car clean, therefore a fantastic family of inventor. Another inventor who has been forgotten is Lizzie Magie who invented Monopoly. She invented it at the beginning of the twentieth century, in 1904, as a game that was supposed to demonstrate how with capitalism no one wins, but everyone loses. She patented it too, went to the patent office, but then she sold it for a pittance, and somebody else, several years later, patented it in his name, another male whose name I won't tell you. An interesting thing is that a few years ago Monopoliy published a special edition dedicated to female inventors, where in each spot, instead of the street name, there is the name of a female inventor. Too bad that Lizzie Magie, who invented the Monopoly game, is missing. How are at female inventors today? In Italy we are in a bad shape only 14% of women go to the patent office to patent the invention, even if I must say that in Sardinia things are going quite well because Sardinia is the first region in Italy for female inventors: 27.9 % of inventions are registered by a woman, and Sardinia is 5th in Europe, so Sardinian women inventors keep inventing but above all keep going to the patent office and putting your name. Be careful that some male does not steal the invention.

#Herstory #FlorenceLawrence (Canadá, 2 de enero de 1886 – Estados Unidos, 28 de diciembre de 1938) fue una #inventora y #actriz canadiense. A menudo se hace referencia a ella como «La primera estrella de cine» de la historia. También fue conocida como «La Chica Biograph», «La Chica IMP» y «La Chica de las mil caras». Actuó en más de 270 películas de varios estudios cinematográficos. Lawrence inventó el primer indicador de cambio de dirección para coches. Se trataba de un dispositivo conectado al guardabarros trasero del coche. Cuando el conductor pulsaba un botón, un brazo subía o bajaba una señal indicando la dirección de giro del coche. Seguido a esto desarrolló una señal de freno en la que un brazo con una señal en la que ponía STOP se desplegaba cuando el conductor pisaba el pedal de freno. Pero estos inventos no fueron patentados y fueron desarrollados por las empresas del automóvil de aquella época. — Wikipedia #educarenigualdad #educarenfeminismo #mujeresyciencia #womeninscience #inventoras #mujeresycine https://www.instagram.com/p/CYOIvG9q5pq/?utm_medium=tumblr

I just started reading William Goldman’s ADVENTURES IN THE SCREEN TRADE. Very fascinating reading. I’ll take this opportunity to share what I just learned: FLORENCE LAWRENCE was the first actress to be named publicly on a film and opened the road to actors being credited in films AND she was the highest paid movie worker at that time (in 1912). Before that, actors were not credited! #actorslife #thankyou #florencelawrence #credit #movie #movieindustry #starsystem #williamgoldman #adventuresinthescreentrade #book #reading #facts

73/100 of #freakinfantasticfemales Born in Hamilton, Ontario, the daughter of a vaudeville actress and a middle-aged carriage-builder, #FlorenceLawrence went on to make history as the first movie star. 🇨🇦🎥🌟 Florence began sharing the stage with her mother. By the age of 10, she was a veteran actor with 5 full time touring seasons. But when her dad died suddenly, her mother pulled her from the stage and the family moved to Buffalo, New York. Florence returned to vaudeville in 1906 - when she saw her first moving picture. By 1907, she had appeared in her first movie, 'Daniel Boone'. In 1908, she was hired as a leading actor at the Biograph film studio. During her career, she performed in more than 250 films, became one of the studio' most popular performers and the highest paid actor in America. In 1937, Florence was diagnosed with a rare bone-marrow disease that resulted in severe pain, anemia and depression. She committed suicide on December 28, 1938. Her once famous face has largely been forgotten, except by film historians. Oh! And she invented the first turn-and-stop signal devices for automobiles. 😯😎 You can learn more about Florence in #mernaforsters book #100morecanadianheroines #drawing #penandink #art #artist #zine #yyjarts #cbcarts #canadianartist #canadianart #estherjparkerartist
