The latest in the Helds of motion
pictures and music is a combination of
the two, in which the mechanlcul
processes of one are used to direct the
artistic processes of the other.
This is nothing more nor less than
the conducting of an orchestra by
means of the screen reproduction of a
noted conductor, handling the baton. It
lias been tried In Chicago as un ex
periment, with such compositions as
(lie overture for “William Tell,” und
, Mendelssohn's “Spring Song.”
The system ns tried out and found
acceptable consists simply of project
ing on a screen in full view of the
orchestra, pictures' previously taken
of an impresario conducting the com
position to lie rendered. It is claimed
tiiut because the pictures are more
conspicuous to the musicians than the
man himself could he, it "is easier for
them to follow his baton. The project
ing machines are motor driven, this
enabling the operator to regulate them
to any speed desired and to muintaitt
it without breaks.
