Abstract:

In the early days of biological electron microscopy (the 1950s and 1960s), projection slides of electron micrographs for talks or teaching were generally prepared as 3-1/2″ X 4″ lantern slides, which were shown using large lantern-slide projectors. It was felt by professional electron microscopists that the detail, tones, and general image quality of electron micrographs could be adequately portrayed only in this larger format.However the large lantern slides were very cumbersome, and most professionals began switching to 2″ X 2″ slides in the early 1970s. Some of us during that period put in

Abstract:

The nineteenth century saw the introduction of the term ‘populariser of science’. The development of this phrase coincided with the increasing use of the magic lantern to illustrate science lectures and astronomy was one of the first disciplines to see its widespread application. The magic lantern was invented in the sixteenth century and spread throughout Europe as a form of home or family entertainment. Examples from the eighteenth century still exist of lantern slides showing astronomical subjects. The invention of limelight illumination in the early nineteenth century resulted in the wides

Abstract:

This article discusses a collection of Victorian ‘Magic Lantern’ slides and supporting paraphernalia concerning the poet Robert Burns. Utilising newly uncovered source materials, it investigates individuals concerned with the creation and ownership of the slides on Burns, including the firm of George Washington Wilson, and also examines the history of their presentation through the example of C. J. Parker, exploring their significance, determining what type of Burns was being propagated to Parker's audiences, and analysing how publically presented readings of Burns therein were constrained by

Abstract:

Dr Sylvester Lambert, an American public health doctor who worked for the International Health Board of the Rockefeller Foundation, created a magic lantern slide presentation to retell the arrest of a sorcerer that he had witnessed in 1925 on the island of Malakula in Vanuatu. In this article, I use creative non-fiction to envision other audiences and narrators of this storied event to present an expanded picture of life for Pacific Islanders at that time. I also reflect on how particular events make for good stories because they are contests about belief and incredulity. Reimagining medical s

This thesis is about the mobilities of geographical knowledge in the material form of lantern-slides and the forces exerted on these by technological and human factors. Owing to its concern with matter, human- and non-human, and its circulation, the thesis addresses the physics of geographical knowledge. The chapters below investigate the Royal Geographical Society’s (RGS) ongoing tradition of telling stories of science and exploration through words, objects and pictures in the final quarter of the nineteenth century and as geography professionalized and geographical science developed.

Abstract:

This chapter offers a consideration of the magic lantern slide from a series of viewpoints giving overlapping ways of thinking about what it is as an artefact, how it works as a component of a narrative and performance medium, and its significances in historical and contemporary contexts of creative use. With illustrations from the Lucerna web resource, institutional and private collections, and the work of the Million Pictures research project, the chapter considers the physicality of slides as objects; their relative cultural (and financial) valuations; their various roles and motivations in the transference and concealment of knowledge; their relationships with other portions of the projection process; and some parallels between historic usage of slides and modern media practices, especially in the complex mixture of ‘authority’ and ‘freedom’ that determines their use and interpretation. Conventional approaches to what is sometimes called the ‘historical art of projection’ can be prone to dwell on one or two of these aspects, often with an emphasis on the visual content of the slide image or the physical nature of the artefact. However, to begin to understand the overall cultural impact of this largely lost medium we need to open out the discussion beyond its component parts and consider its possible uses, both historical and current. This chapter therefore aims to describe lantern slide projection as an interactive, ephemeral performance medium, elusive and difficult to categorize, but rich in its creative possibilities.

Abstract:

One of the threads linking together the early twentieth-century urban reform movements of city beautifying, garden city/suburb and town planning is the use of lantern slides and their ubiquitous projection device, the magic lantern. Along with newspapers, pamphlets and posters, lantern slides were an essential tool across each of these movements, presenting and framing the objectives promoted by their enthusiastic leaders and enabling the broad dissemination of their ideas via images projected to audiences in public lectures. Yet our understanding of how lantern media operated in these context
