Music used to be much more interactive than kids today realize….people used to actually play real instruments and not just play along on pretend instruments in front of big screen HD Plazma television sets. At one time people even had to get up….put a record on a machine…and wind up the machine…and move the needle over and place it on the record ‘oh so carefully’ in order to hear the music…no really…this is not just a story (I know the young-uns won’t believe me!) People would even sit around the machine…be it a record player or an old tube radio…and listen for hours…sometimes to the same music over and over…yes…shocking! They would even wait for weeks for the ‘newest’ recording to come out and have to save up for a very long time to be able to afford…that one new record. Some of the songs they listened to were even…real toe tappers! Featured in the very cool group “PostCard Style” on 9 Feb, 09 / Featured in the wonderful group “You’re Accepted” on / 2 Feb, 2009. / A top 10 Finish in the Nostalgic Music Contest in the Nostalgic Art and Photography group on 7 Feb, 2009 50% of what I receive from sales will be donated to help military families/children during the holidays…so spend large and lets help them out!

Father of modern electricity. May or may not have levelled Tunguska, Siberia with some sort of super powerful electric ‘death ray’. Really. Look it up. Fuck Edison. Oils on 9” x 12” canvas board. This is another of my ‘one hour flash portraits’ painted late at night, or early Saturday morning, February 7th, 2009, between the hours of 2 and 3 am.

Governments around the world, are setting targets to phase out the use of Incandescent light bulbs, in favour of more energy-efficient fluorescent sources of lighting, effectively “sunsetting” one of the most ubiquitous inventions of the 20th century. Thomas Edison created the first commercially viable incandescent light bulb in 1879. Little did he know how much his invention would contribute to the energy crisis that dominates the 21st century!... (I’ve used PS CS2 and most of the techniques in this tutorial for the water reflections)

The simplicity of the light bulb, but without it, we would be lost in the dark. One man, one mind, and we have the light bulb which is taken for granted, but without it, people would be lost.

This phonograph has been in my family for nearly 100 years. As a child it kept me entertained for hours on end on rainy days. My grandfather restored the cabinetry and reconditioned the works and it still plays so well that my son used a recording of one of the cylinders as an opening and closin track for his punk band ‘Downtrodn’ a few years ago. I have nearly 100 cylinders in the collection today, but I’m always looking for more and especially for a replacement stylus as the present one is the original. Thomas A. Edison invented the phonograph, the first device for recording and playing back sound, in 1877. After inventing and patenting the phonograph, Edison and his laboratory turned their attention to the commercial development of (electric lighting), playing no further role in the development of the phonograph for a decade. / The earliest phonograph was something of a crude curiosity, although it was one that fascinated much of the public. Early machines were sold to entrepreneurs who made a living out of traveling around the country giving “phonograph concerts” and demonstrating the device for a fee at fairs. “Talking dolls” and “Talking clocks” were manufactured as expensive novelties using the early phonograph. / The start of the commercial record industry / In 1887 Edison Labs turned their attention back to improving the phonograph and the phonograph cylinder. / In 1888 the Edison company debuted the Perfected Phonograph, Edison produced wax cylinders 4 inches (10 cm) long, 2 inches in diameter, playing some 2 minutes of music or entertainment, which became the industry standard. Experimental music records were made around this time. The “brown wax” cylinder made its debut in March/April 1889. “Electric Light Quadrille” by Issler’s Orchestra (external link) is an example of an 1889 brown wax cylinder (Superbatone #734—”The Real Sound of Ragtime”). / Blank records were an important part of the business early on. Most phonographs had or could be fitted with attachments for the users to make their own recordings. One important early use, in line with the original term for a phonograph as a “talking machine”, was in business for recording dictation. Attachments were added to facilitate starting, stopping, and skipping back the recording for dictation and playback by stenographers. The business phonograph eventually evolved into a separate device from the home entertainment phonograph. Edison Record’s brand of business phonograph was called The Ediphone; see Phonograph cylinder and Dictaphone. Edison also holds the achievement of being one of the first companies to record the first African-American quartet to record: The Unique Quartette.
