A special program by Carlo Montanaro


sonoro_diksonThe first form of experiments with motion pictures derived from the phonograph. So, it was a mix of sound and video. However, the technology had to have passed through thousands of inventions (bruiteur/noisemaker) before sound cinema, with the further addition of color, became reality. While some experiments with inserting optical code directly on the film were still taking place (Theodore Case), it is the synchronization between the projector and the record player that has sent home The Jazz Singer, musicians and orchestras, thus celebrating the most radical and bold conquest of the cinema techniques, which, accompanied by music, started to “speak”.
