Various experiments at electrically amplifying the vibrations of a string instrument date back to the early part of the twentieth century.

In the analog versions of these experiments, horizontal layers of sand are pulled along a lower surface into a back stop, which results in realistic-looking patterns of faulting and the growth of a critically tapered ( all angles remain the same ) orogenic wedge.

Unlike Dungeons & Dragons, the other approach to fantasy role-playing which traces its roots back to the 1960s and which derives from the wargaming scene, the roots of Glorantha lie in experiments with mythology, storytelling, and recreation and blending of ancient societies.

It is, in fact, full of theatrical codes harking back to the Dadaists ' Vox Humana experiments after World War One, Alphonse de Lamartine's " La Voix humaine ", part of his larger work Harmonies poétiques et religieuses and the effect of the creation of the Vox Humana (" voix humaine "), an organ stop of the Regal Class by Church organ masters ( late 16th century ) that attempted to imitate the human voice but never succeeded in doing better than the sound of a male chorus at a distance.

After his degree Hutton returned to London, then in mid-1750 went back to Edinburgh and resumed chemical experiments with close friend, James Davie.

The von Neumann description of quantum measurement of an observable A, when the system is prepared in a pure state ψ is the following ( note, however, that von Neumann's description dates back to the 1930s and is based on experiments as performed during that time – more specifically the Compton – Simon experiment ; it is not applicable to most present-day measurements within the quantum domain ):

In one of history's greatest experiments in communal living, the Jesuits had soon organized about 100, 000 Guaraní in about 20 reducciones ( reductions or townships ), and they dreamed of a Jesuit empire that would stretch from the Paraguay-Paraná confluence to the coast and back to the Paraná headwaters.

The earliest mention of experiments on the neural basis of working memory can be traced back to over 100 years ago, when Hitzig and Ferrier described ablation experiments of the prefrontal cortex ( PFC ), they concluded that the frontal cortex was important for cognitive rather than sensory processes.

Once Project MKUltra officially got underway in April, 1953, experiments included administering LSD to mental patients, prisoners, drug addicts and prostitutes, " people who could not fight back ", as one agency officer put it.

The wave-nature of particles actually dates back to de Broglie's hypothesis as well as Davisson and Germer's experiments.

In 1960 he moved back to Europe, attracted by the newly founded CERN, where he worked on experiments on the structure of weak interactions.

Digital speakers have been the subject of experiments performed by Bell Labs as far back as the 1920s.

The relation to real experiments can be quite complex, as can be seen again from an example going back to Albert Einstein.

During the whole of this time he scarcely ever moved from his house, except to the prison and back, and the result of a portion of his labors was discovered to his friends in conversations and experiments relating to electrical phenomena, which revealed to them the fact that, alone and unaided-from the sheer force of his genius-he had discovered as early, if not earlier, than Morse or Wheatstone, the principles of the present system of electric telegraphy.

However through the 1960s it was to be French post-structuralist theory that was to exert the most influence over readings of Finnegans Wake, refocussing critical attention back to the work's radical linguistic experiments and their philosophical consequences.

Since the charge on the dielectric is not depleted in this process, the charge on the metal plate can be used for experiments, for example by touching it to metal conductors allowing the charge to drain away, and the uncharged metal plate can be placed back on the dielectric and the process repeated to get another charge.

In any event, though film historian David Robinson claims that " the cylinder experiments seem to have been carried on to the bitter end " ( meaning the final months of 1890 ), as far back as September 1889 — while Edison was still in Europe, but corresponding regularly with Dickson — the lab definitely placed its first order with the Eastman company for roll film.

It dates back to the 19th-century experiments by Eadweard Muybridge, who analyzed the motion of a galloping horse by using a line of cameras to photograph the animal as it ran past.
