Abstract
This 3D scholarly edition explores the Kinora motion photography viewer (1896-1914). Introduced at the end of the 19th century, the Kinora was one of the earliest home cinema technologies. It was originally designed as an individual viewing device. Using a flipbook mechanism, hundreds of paper-based photographs attached to a reel could be rotated and viewed through the Kinora. The 3D edition provides insight into the Kinora system, its history and user practices. In addition, the edition reflects on the process of creating a working 3D-printed replica of the Kinora viewer and reel, developed as part of a research project at the University of Luxembourg.
