"Network Aesthetics opens with an epigraph from Howards End, an imperative to “Only connect!” that Jagoda rightly notes is a condition that seems to go without saying in the 21st century. He spends the rest of the book complicating this, though, gently pushing at each turn against the sentiment that connection is as predetermined as we think."

烏德琴及其變體的蹤跡在地中海波斯灣地區的古代文明中都可見到,包括蘇美爾阿卡德波斯巴比倫亞述古希臘古埃及羅馬帝國
中國的琵琶據說是也是由烏德琴演變而來。東漢時期劉熙所著之《釋名樂器》中的記載就有「批把本出於胡中,馬上所鼓也。推手前曰批,引手後曰把。」之句。說明琵琶是外族的產物。
歐洲樂器魯特琴被認為是從烏德琴衍生出來的樂器。歐洲人是在十字軍東征期間接觸到烏德琴的,當時有人將烏德琴帶回歐洲,魯特琴在法文中是Luth、英文Lute、德文Laute、義大利文Liuto、荷蘭文Luit、在西班牙文中是Alaud 而英文中luthier這詞,即撥弦樂器製作匠,也是來自Luth。
