 Perfect! Let’s go even deeper into the early history of cinema, including technical innovations, global spread, and notable firsts. I’ll organize it into a detailed timeline and context so it’s easier to follow.

1. Precursors to Cinema

Before cinema existed, inventors were experimenting with moving images:

• 1824 – Thaumatrope: A spinning disk creating the illusion of motion.

• 1832 – Phenakistoscope: Early animation device using spinning discs and slits.

• 1878 – Eadweard Muybridge: Photographed a galloping horse in sequential images to study motion.

• 1888 – Kinetoscope (Thomas Edison): Early motion picture device for individual viewing through a peephole.

These inventions laid the groundwork for projected cinema.

If you want, I can create a visual “first cinemas in the world” map showing where and when the first cinemas opened continent by continent—it’s really cool to see cinema spreading like a wave globally.

Do you want me to make that map?
