Content
The main content of the site will be material from private
collections enlarged with the collections of museums &
institutions, universities, etc.
This web site will mainly focus on Media
Archaeology,
Pre-Cinema,
Precursors of Photography,
Photography & Early
Film, Death Dance AND
Conjuring Arts, spiritism,
in relation to the previous subjects.
The term PRE-CINEMA, as we
will notice, is much wider and not limited only to devices
who deserve a place in pre-film history. For this, the term
is misleading!
Further illustrations will be used of items where the copyright
is passed and came into the public domain.
If you should encounter images on this site on which you
have copyrights, please let me know and I will
immediately remove the item, unless permission to publish
will be granted.
I will, of course, avoid, the online publication of protected
images but one can never exlude mistakes.

with the 'wet

Jacobson during the Bievres,
