At its inception, the cinema was understood by many to be an electric art, akin to X-rays, coloured light, and sostnic energy. This book examines the two movements' engagement with the Faraday and Maxwell's new science of energy, and shows energy came to be understood as a spiritual phenomenon and the cinema as a pneumatic machine.
