A precursor to the kinetoscope, the Electrotachyscope was a German invention that showed zoetrope-esque photo animation in a box.
In 1893, fifty of these machines in coin-operated form were placed at the Columbian Exposition in Chicago.

On August 31, 1897, Thomas Edison received a patent for his Kinetographic camera (the Kinetograph), a pioneering motion picture camera developed alongside his assistant W.K.L. Dickson. Film with perforated edges moved by a sprocket allowed rapid stop-and-go exposure of about 30 frames per second.

Eat Outside Day encourages you to taste the sunshine (or the moonlight) while eating your meal. It's like a mini stay-cation where you get to recharge while enjoying a delicious feast outdoors.
It’s also the last day of Meteorological summer

Hehe. Glad maybe to have helped, inadvertently, to supply an image to your thoughts.
It’s a weird painting. I’m not quite sure how to feel about it. The ‘peasant’/‘tech’ thing.
It has no date but if it is a kinetoscope at centre then it’s a v specific dating to 1894 and a couple of years after.
