Pioneer Experiments of Eugene Lauste in Recording Sound

Merritt Crawford

Among the pioneers who were engaged in developing the motion picture art, the name of Eugene Augustin Lauste prominently appears. In the January, 1931, issue of the Journal a brief outline of Mr. Lauste's career was presented by the Historical Committee of the Society. This paper deals more intimately with the various stages of Mr. Lauste's career, particularly with regard to his long-continued experimentation with various methods of recording and reproducing sound on film. A replica of one of Mr. Lauste's original sound picture recording and reproducing machines was exhibited at the Spring, 1931, Meeting of the Society at Hollywood.
