Birth of Projection

Birth of Projection explores the fascinating pre-history of cinema, highlighting the pivotal role of photographic projection in shaping visual culture. Far from simply being about cameras, the book argues that projecting images to an audience was a crucial step toward modern cinematic experiences. Readers will discover how innovations in lens technology and optical instruments, like magic lanterns, transformed entertainment and scientific visualization during the 19th century.

The book progresses from the origins of image projection in optical devices to the rise of entrepreneurs who popularized projected images. Discover how early motion picture strips and lantern slides emerged, setting the stage for the invention of cinema. By focusing on these often-overlooked techniques, Birth of Projection offers a unique perspective on the evolution of visual media.
