The history of radio dates back to centuries ago and many people seem to be associated with it. Apart from James Clerk Maxwell there are many people who contributed to the idea of radio, some of the most famous are Michael Faraday, Friedrich Kohlrausch, Wilhelm Weber, and Heinrich Hertz. These were the people who contributed in one way or other for the development of radio.
Similarly, history of television also involves work of many scientists and engineers who work directly or indirectly for the invention and development of television. Just like history of radio, the history of television is also very vast and rich involving many people from many countries. So it would be wrong if we just mention the name of one person as many scientist, technicians, engineers work in their fields what we are seeing today as television.
Earlier television was mechanical as well as electronic gadget but later it became purely electronic item. So we can safely say that the foundation stone i.e. electromechanical principles were taken over by purely electronics as we are seeing it today. Actually, Maxwell was very impressed with electromagnetism related work of Michael Faraday. The main turning point in the development of radio started with the technical paper on Faraday’s ideas on electromagnetism by Maxwell in 1855.
On the similar lines, the invention of television also involves work from several technicians, scientists and engineers who worked in different fields. Basically there are two different fields of technologies: early inventors tried to build a mechanical television on the basis of rotating disks technology by Paul Nipkow, whereas later electronic television was developed on the basis of cathode ray tube (CRT) in 1907 by English inventor Campbell and Russian scientist Boris.
We all know that over the period of time these were electronic television systems that replaced mechanical television technology due to obvious reasons, such as better performance, low heating and low power consumptions.

Walter Thiemann recovered that shadow when he put a thin line and a shadow line around his Tiemann Fraktur. It is an embellished and delightful typeface, this Peter Schlemihl. It is probably one of the most beautiful typefaces among the outline, shadow and striped black letter fonts. (Albert Kapr) |

ITC Peter’s Miro Package $25.99 When it came to ITC Peter’s Miro, New York-based designer John Peter wanted to have fun. The typeface is inspired by the letters used by Joan Miro in his paintings. “No one used letterforms more frequently in his work than Joan Miro,” says Peter. But, he continues, in this typeface “considerable liberty has been taken with his original letters, and missing characters have been added.” ITC Peter’s Miro is intended as an homage to the master, and a playful extension of one aspect of his work. The letters are a very simple script, irregular and apparently crude, but bursting with uncontrollable energy. Peter wants graphic designers to give full play to their creativity when using the typeface, so he provides two complete versions of the alphabet (Peter’s Miro and Peter’s Miro Too) in both upper- and lowercase. Although very few of the letters actually connect, they do flow together freely, and, as Peter points out, “They lend themselves to ligatures.” They also lend themselves to being filled in, here and there, with bright colors, as Miro often did in his own art. This way, the letters keep the impact of black, the most powerful color for text, but they offer a home for color in their interior spaces and details. |
