Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Art of Projection: And Complete Magic Lantern Manual The Lantern has long since ceased to be a toy, or regarded as a playing; as an educator, it now stands in the front rank. Lecturers and teachers are now rapidly making use of it, dispensing with cumbrous diagrams, and by means of well illuminated pictures, attract the attention of the audience, in a manner quite unattainable by any previous method. Physical Geography, and the Natural Sciences, are taught in a more graphic and impressive style by the aid of the lantern, than was possible by the old routine. Teachers are fast recognising this fact, School Boards are slow to introduce lanterns generally, from no other cause, than the fear of it looking too juvenile, and also the unwillingness of teachers to take to anything new. In this respect our American cousins are far ahead of us. The impression made on the mind by seeing the actual place or object in front of the pupil, is without doubt the best means to help retention of the lesson. The "Gilchrist trust" have taken the matter up, and send teachers suitable lanterns for this purpose (we shall refer to this later on). The name which has been almost universally associated with the lantern from its very beginning, is that of Athanasius Kircher, a Jesuit priest, who flourished about the seventeenth century, and is mentioned in his work "Ars, Magna lucis et Umbrae," which shows a lantern or box with the oil lamp suspended by a chain, and the said lamp carries a rude reflector. Little can be found on the Magic lantern between the seventeenth and nineteenth centuries, when we find it again mentioned by Sir David Brewster, in a book entitled "Cabinet Cyclopaedia" in 1831.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Art of Projecting: A Manual of Experimentation in Physics, Chemistry, and Natural History With the Porte Lumiere and Magic Lantern Since the first publication of this book the author has received so many commendatory letters from many parts of the world that he is fully persuaded that the book met a real want; and a sunbeam is now made useful in school work and in the study of phenomena in many places where no substitute is practicable. In preparing a new edition, some things have been added which it is hoped will make the book still more useful to such as consult it. Two things may be specially mentioned here: the electric lamps and lights for projection purposes, and the production and phenomena of vortex rings. Of the former there is pointed out what is at present practicable, and of the latter it may be said that the vortex-ring theory of the constitution of matter has so much philosophical as well as scientific importance, and the phenomena presented by vortex rings are so curious and unexpected, that the author has felt warranted in presenting what he believes to be the most complete series at present known, especially as he believes himself to be the discoverer of a considerable number of them. Several small treatises on the management and use of lanterns have been published lately, and may be had on application to almost any of the larger dealers in physical instruments and lantern transparencies. It was not thought advisable to add anything on that subject. An excellent manual for experimental work with the lantern has been published by Lewis Wright, which every one interested in such matters should have, especially as many of the experiments described in it can be done as well or better by the use of a beam of sunlight, - the use of a beam of sunlight for projection being the peculiar province of this book.

Book excerpt: An investigation of mathematics as it was drawn, encoded, imagined, and interpreted by architects on the eve of digitization in the mid-twentieth century. In Formulations, Andrew Witt examines the visual, methodological, and cultural intersections between architecture and mathematics. The linkages Witt explores involve not the mystic transcendence of numbers invoked throughout architectural history, but rather architecture’s encounters with a range of calculational systems—techniques that architects inventively retooled for design. Witt offers a catalog of mid-twentieth-century practices of mathematical drawing and calculation in design that preceded and anticipated digitization as well as an account of the formal compendia that became a cultural currency shared between modern mathematicians and modern architects. Witt presents a series of extensively illustrated “biographies of method”—episodes that chart the myriad ways in which mathematics, particularly the mathematical notion of modeling and drawing, was spliced into the creative practice of design. These include early drawing machines that mechanized curvature; the incorporation of geometric maquettes—“theorems made flesh”—into the toolbox of design; the virtualization of buildings and landscapes through surveyed triangulation and photogrammetry; formal and functional topology; stereoscopic drawing; the economic implications of cubic matrices; and a strange synthesis of the technological, mineral, and biological: crystallographic design. Trained in both architecture and mathematics, Witt uses mathematics as a lens through which to understand the relationship between architecture and a much broader set of sciences and visual techniques. Through an intercultural exchange with other disciplines, he argues, architecture adapted not only the shapes and surfaces of mathematics but also its values and epistemic ideals.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book draws on a rich set of materials to examine postwar experiences of ex-servicemen who were facially-disfigured during the First World War. Weaving together medical, institutional, amateur and family photographic albums under a social history framework, Jason Bate underscores overlooked aspects of these men's continued hardships after returning home from the front. In particular, a focus is on the private sphere of the family and the complicated world of employment that disfigured veterans navigated on their return. Little attention has hitherto been paid to the aftercare of disfigured veterans once discharged from the army, or the long-term impact on individuals, and the sense of burden felt by families and local communities. In addressing this neglected area, the chapters here illuminate different practices of photography by doctors, nurses, press agencies, and families across the generations to challenge our perceptions of the personal traumas of soldiers and civilians.
