Media art
Historical media experimentators
Johann Wolfgang Kempelen {18th century) - mechanical sound synthesis, chess automaton (a man hidden in a box moved chess figures with the help of teleoperator links),
Jozef Petzval - calculated and constructed the first photo camera lens,
Antonin Jedlík and Gejza Bolemann - created Lissajouse patterns (super-position of harmonic functions) with the mechanical "predecessor" of the computer plotter (long before Ben Laponsky did his first oscilons with an electronic computer).
