EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, English Professor Low proudly demonstrates his groundbreaking invention, an audiometer, which revolutionized the early years of cinema by synchronizing moving film with sound during the Talkie era. The image, captured in the 1930s, showcases the professor in the midst of a demonstration, with the intricate machinery of his audiometer and a phonograph prominently displayed. The invention of synchronized sound in films was a significant milestone in the history of cinema. Prior to this, films and sound were separate entities, with audiences having to endure the inconvenience of watching silent movies accompanied by live music or recorded soundtracks played on phonographs. The audiometer, however, changed all that by allowing the precise synchronization of sound and moving images. Professor Low's ingenious invention was a complex piece of equipment, consisting of a phonograph that played a soundtrack, and a device that used a stylus to read the sound waves and transmit them to the film. This information was then used to control the timing of the film projector, ensuring that the sound and images were perfectly aligned. The photograph captures the excitement and innovation of this period in film history, with Professor Low's focused expression and the intricate machinery of his audiometer taking center stage. The image is a testament to the ingenuity and determination of early filmmakers and inventors who pushed the boundaries of technology to bring the magic of synchronized sound to the silver screen. This photograph is a valuable historical artifact, offering a rare glimpse into the past and the early days of talking pictures. It serves as a reminder of the important role that innovation and creativity play in shaping the world of cinema and entertainment.
