(Television is here regarded simply as a means for distributionand exhibition of moving images accompanied by sound.) We can only guess what first prompted people to expressthemselves in the various older artistic media, or how early modes and conventions developed and disappeared asaesthetic and social functions changed. The motion picture, however, is clearly the child of nineteenth-century scientificcuriosity and technological ingenuity; it has grown up under our twentieth-century noses.In fact, the most important of the motion picture’s original reasons for being had nothing to do with its artisticpotential. The theory underlying the motion picture was demonstrated in a succession of optical toys. Its tools andmaterials were invented out of a desire to make visual records of life and to study the movements of animals,including humans. Its capacity to provide peep-show entertainment attracted paying customers to what scientists andinventors had made available. Later, as the novelty of lifelike movement began to pale, the technicians andentrepreneurs who had discovered how to project moving images onto screens stumbled onto an old interest latent inaudiences—the story. They began to offer simple narratives in a new form. As in the novel, the play, music, or dance,an ordering of events into a beginning, middle, and end was required in even the simplest motion picture.
