"Had Eadweard Muybridge lived in an age of global television coverage and an entertainment-driven consumer culture, he would have been a media superstar (...) When displayed in his patented zoopraxiscope, the images of animals and men walking and running caused a true sensation. A newspaper account from 1883 of one of Muybridge's many lectures remarked on the "wonderful effects" of the photographs and the "repeated applause" they elicited from the audience."

> Zoals gezien op tv: 'Woman walking on all fours', uit de fotoserie 'Animal Locomotion'. Eadweard Muybridge maakte de foto's, ene Charl Lucassen maakte er animaties van.
