About the Book
Photo-electric Phenomena, 266 pages, black and white.
Photo-electric Phenomena is a visual exploration of the technological apparatus behind the first period of ‘talking pictures’ in the United States. Images culled from technical and trade journals published during the transition to sound (1926-1931) create a trajectory from the laboratory to the projection booth by outlining the various devices necessary for the recording and reproduction of synchronous sound.
