'Harmonious Sensations of Sound by Means of Colors': Vernacular Colour Abstractions in Silent CinemaThis essay deals with popular experiments with synaesthesia in silent cinema. In 1896, for example, C. Francis Jenkins, an inventor of one of the earliest film projectors, discussed the cinemas potential to enchant an audience with abstract,…
