Technical (photographic) innovations of the 19 th century changed the way people saw objects/people – People couldn’t “see” things happening at a fraction of a second…the human eye was inadequate “spark exposures” at 1/100,000 of a second – An early version of the flash – Made to capture people walking, water dripping

5. Eadweard Muybridge, Galloping Horse, Motion Study – Sallie Gardner, 1878 That’s me! The Bet: does a horse’s feet leave the ground as it runs? 24 cameras faced the horse racing. Threads connected to electric switches lay across the race track. Horse raced through, pulled threads, snapshot was taken at 1/2000 of a sec. Muybridge accused of killing his wife’s lover, went on trial, acquitted in 1874 of murder, and fled San Francisco until 1877

6. Ottomar Anschutz, Storks, 1882 Developed a folding hand camera with a focal-plane shutter that allowed exposures at 1/1000 second Photos of storks nesting & in- flight amazed scientists Improved upon Muybridge’s locomotion studies (faster) and developed photos in motion that could be seen by many at once Anschutz made photos of projectiles in flight at Krupps Weapons Plant
