  • Abstract
    On 7 September 1927, Philo Taylor Farnsworth demonstrated the first all-electronic dissection and reconstruction of a television image, laying the foundation for the television revolution. In this interview with Kent Farnsworth, one of Philo´s surviving sons, we get a rare glimpse of this prolific inventor´s working habits.
