TRANSCRIPT
1860
Tearliest known recording was created by Édouard-Léon Scott de Martinville,
the inventor of the phonautograph. The recordings were not intended for
listening; the idea of audio playback had not been conceived. Rather, Scott
sought to create a paper record of human speech that could later be
deciphered. But the phonautograph recording, or phonautogram, was made
playable by scientists at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory. The 10-
second recording of a singer crooning the folk song “Au Clair de la Lune” was
discovered in March 2008 in an archive in Paris by a group of American audio
historians.

1874
Ernst W. Siemens was the first to describe the "dynamic" or
moving-coil transducer, with a circular coil of wire in a
magnetic field and supported so that it could move axially. He
filed his U. S. patent application for a "magneto-electric
apparatus" for "obtaining the mechanical movement of an
electrical coil from electrical currents transmitted through it".

Alexander G. Bell patented the telephone - the first
electrical device for audible transmission.

1876
The first patented in the United States that showed animated
pictures or movies was a device called “wheel of life” or
“zoopraxiscope”. Patnented in 1876 by William Licoln, moving
photographs or drawings were watched through a slit in the
zoopraxiscope. However, this was a far cry from motion pictures
as we know them today. Modern motion picture making began
with the invention of the motion picture camera.

1876-1878
Thomas Edison invents the phonograph, which uses an engraved wax
cylinder that rotates against a stylus.
Ernest W. Siemens granted patent for a nonmagnetic parchment diaphragm
as the sound radiator of a moving-coil transducer. The diaphragm could take
the form of a cone, with an exponentially flaring "morning glory" trumpet
form. This is the first patent for the loudspeaker horn that would be used on
most phonographs players in the acoustic era.
The first music is put on record: cornetist Jules Levy plays "Yankee Doodle.“
