This pictures signal is created by PC.

It is written on those day's the electrician(magazine) about the television signal "a sound resemble the rasping of steel with a blunt file".

At the beginning of Shouwa Era(1930),Dr,Kenjirou Takayanagi demonstrated his new television system to Japanese emperor.This movie is reproduction of his demonstration.To be exact,his television system used CRT,but this reproduction used nipkow disk.

※Slow flicker from left to right is due to this movie taken by the digital Camera.If you watch this television directly , you will not feel flicker although it has only 12.5 flame per second.
