This article examines the early years of Transocean, a news agency owned and run by the German government, and its use of wire- less telegraphy from 1914 to 1922. This investigation of the infancy of wireless technology demonstrates that technology plays a constitutive role in defining news. The German government used the new possibilities innate in the medium of wireless to carve out their own sphere of operation in the seas and on conti- nents where German telegraph news had never played a major role, in particu- lar East Asia. Wireless telegraphy enabled the German government to circum- vent the British communications blockade in World War I. Afterwards, Transocean’s wireless transmissions to East Asia and ships en route caused an uproar in Britain disproportionate to its circulation.

The near simultaneity of the appearance of a new mass medium and an implicit critique of its cultural inscription marks a striking conjunction. Given the massive cultural role television subsequently assumed, and Benjamin' s relative marginalization to a small circle of intellectuals, it seems astonishing that his essay achieved a much higher profile in cultural memory than did the considerable develop­ ments of German television broadcasting between 1935 and 1944.

  • The Techno-Politics of Colour: Britain and the European Struggle for a Colour Television Standard
    The Techno-politics of Colour: Britain and the European Struggle for a Colour Television Standard Andreas Fickers The first colour television transmissions in Great Britain in 1967 marked the end of more than ten years of national and international debate over the technical specifications of the colour television system to be adopted on a European scale. From 1955 a group of European experts – mainly television engineers from broadcasting institutions, national post offices and the television industry – met at regular meetings of the CCIR (Comité Consultatif International de Radiocommunications) to discuss the possibilities of introducing a common European colour television standard. Engineers hoped that this would transform the fragmented European television landscape with its numerous different line standards for black-and-white television (Fickers 2006a). With the foundation in November 1962 of an ad hoc commission on colour television of the EBU (European Broadcasting Union), the discussion intensified and concentrated on comparing three existing technical alternatives: the American NTSC system, the ‘French’ SECAM system and the ‘German’ PAL system. But what started as a scientific endeavour to determine the best colour television system for Europe slowly but surely mutated into a fierce techno-political controversy between the major stakeholders. The most intense phase of the colour television debate took place between the 1962 EBU ad hoc commission meetings and the 1965 and 1966 CCIR conferences in Vienna and Oslo. While both contemporaries and historians have described this European debate as being primarily a French-German argument (Fickers 2007), the interests and influence of the British television industry, the broadcasters and various political institutions including the Post Office, the Foreign Office and the Board of Trade have received less academic scrutiny.

  • DVB - the History of Television
    DVB - The History of Television A History of Television by Jean-Jacques Peters (EBU) Contents Preface The foundations The first broadcasts Highlights Colour television On the primaries Colour television Digital television Technological developments transmission Television film Video recording Television cameras scanning Towards other screens Electronic special effects Digital images Preface Did you know there are more television sets in the world than there are telephones? Even the television professionals find it hard to believe. However the statistics prove it to be true; according to official figures from the International Telecommunication Union there were 565 million telephones in 1983, and 600 million television sets. Other figures are just as impressive: in Belgium, from 1967 to 1982, the average time spent watching television by children from 10 to 13 years, increased from 82 to 146 minutes per day. Stupefying in every sense of the word. Our senses are assailed every day by the attraction of the visual message. Its all-pervasiveness and instantaneity are finely tuned to our way of thinking, whether we be hard-pressed or lazy. We expect from it effortless pleasure and hot news. A Chinese proverb tells us a picture is worth ten thousand words. But the stupefaction takes its toll and we thirst for more. Images pour over us in a never-ending torrent. Television has already modified our social behaviour. It fosters, for example, our taste for things visual the impact of the picture and its colours. It encourages in us a yearning for the big spectacle the razzmatazz and the forthright declaration. The effect can be seen in the way we react one to another and in the world of advertising.

VON RECKLINGHAUSEN Arlington, MA The search for amplification and control of recorded and transmitted music over the last 100 years has progressed from mechanical amplifiers to tube amplifiers to solid-state equipment. The AM radio, the record player, the FM receiver, and the tape recorder have supplemented the acoustical phonograph and the telephone. An incomplete summary of important developments in the past is presented along with challenges for the future. Home music reproduction began when Bell invented the tromechanical repeater caused it to be used for 20 years telephone in 1876 and Edison invented the phonograph in more as a hearing-aid amplifier [5, pp. 64-69]. 1877. Instruments were manufactured soon thereafter and C.A. Parsons of London, England, inventor of the leased or sold to the public.

  • German-British Rivalry and Visions of Global Communications in the Early Twentieth Century
    How Not to Build a World Wireless Network: German-British Rivalry and Visions of Global Communications in the Early Twentieth Century Heidi Tworek Assistant Professor of International History University of British Columbia 1873 East Mall, Room 1297 Vancouver, BC V6T 1Z1 Canada This is a preprint version of an article that appears in History and Technology: An International Journal 32, no. 2 (2016): 178-200. The journal is published by Taylor & Francis. The article DOI is: 10.1080/07341512.2016.1217599 The published version can be found here. Abstract: Edward Snowden’s revelations laid bare an unprecedented scale of state influence on communications technology. But government elites have frequently shaped technological development through their beliefs about potentially nefarious uses of communications. This article argues that beliefs about how other states or groups might use a technology can shape innovation. In particular, German visions about the British use of cables spurred German investment in developing wireless telegraphy. Germans imagined that the British were using cable technology to damage Germany’s reputation, spy on Germany and ‘poison’ neutral countries against the Central Powers. The German government and military at first created a colonial wireless network to bypass British cables. In World War I, however, they sought to establish a world wireless network. In the end, innovation was significantly shaped by how Germans imagined their enemies’ uses of communications technology. Keywords: wireless, radio, Germany, World War I, Britain, colonialism, imperialism 1 Sophus Larsen was in trouble. He needed money, and fast. In November 1917, his company, Larsen & Co., had signed a contract with the Chinese government to erect three wireless stations on Chinese soil.
