John Ayrton Paris Boeken
Deze Britse arts wordt het meest herinnerd als de mogelijke uitvinder van de thaumatrop, een optische illusie die hij in april 1825 publiceerde. Zijn werk toont een vroeg begrip van de principes van visuele waarneming en de toepassing ervan in entertainment- en educatieve apparaten. Zijn wetenschappelijke bijdrage ligt in de exploratie van de kruising van wetenschap en kunst, wat een fascinerend inzicht biedt in de innovaties van het begin van de 19e eeuw.
