Abstract
The history of the sound picture dates back to 1877, the year of Edison's announcement of the phonograph, which brought the realization that the human voice could be mechanically reproduced. Between that time and the time of the successful demonstration of the motion picture in 1889 there were a number of scientific dreamers who hoped to make talking photographs. They tried to synchronize the human voice or music to slide photographs; and with the advent of the “living pictures” these experimenters tried to make of them talking motion pictures.
