When Jin tells Wei-Chen that he has spoken to Wei-Chen's father (the Monkey King), a panel depicting Wei-Chen's true identity as a monkey juxtaposes his hipster human form in the next panel. No matter what transformation Wei-Chen takes, he cannot dismiss his true identity as a monkey.
The first video cameras were produced in the 1920s in support of the early television systems. John Logie Baird built a camera as part of his television system demonstrated in 1925. Philo Farnsworth made a fully electronic camera that was demonstrated in 1929. The video camera, or television camera, is a fundamental part of television so cameras have been around for as long as television has existed.
Blockbuster can thank Charles Ginsberg, inventor of the videotape recorder, for its brief but profitable rise, all based upon a simple business model of renting video tapes. Ginsberg, an researcher at Ampex Corporation, invented the videotape recorder in 1951. The contraption worked by taking live images from cameras and converting them into electrical impulses stored on magnetic tape. Ampex sold the first video tape recorder for $50,000 in 1956. By 1971, Sony began marketing the first at-home VCRs. After Ginsbergâs invention broke, nothing was ever the same for the entertainment industry.
