Eadweard Muybridge - Magic in Motion

Friday August 27, 2004
San Francisco photographer, Eadweard Muybridge conducted motion-sequence still photographic experiments and is called the "Father of the motion picture" even though he did not make films in the manner we know them as today.

Special thanks goes out this week to Steve Gallagher for letting me know that only one DEC PDP-10 computer was used during the first tests of ARPAnet - the original internet. Another thanks goes to Glen Hoag for finding my mistake in the History of Spark Plugs.
