PROJECT DEDICATED TO NIKOLA TESLA STAGED AT ZAGREB MUSEUM

ZAGREB, Sept 28 (Hina) - A demonstration of some of the experiments which made Nikola Tesla a world-known researcher and inventor in the field of electrical engineering and radio-technology was held at Zagreb's Technical Museum on Friday within a project called "Broadcasting". Presented in Tesla's demonstration cabinet were experiments on transformers and other exhibits made 25 years ago for the purposes of a film on Tesla's life. Japanese art theoretician Keiko Sei, president of a club of Tesla fans for East Europe, held a lecture about Tesla's influence on art. The project Broadcasting, which was organised by the cultural association "Sto, kako i za koga", the publishing house 'Arkzin', the Mama club and the Technical Museum, started in June this year. It is to resume with performances, panels, and concerts and will end in January next year with a modern art exhibition at the Technical Museum. Nikola Tesla, born in 1856 in Smiljani near Gospic, left more than 800 patents, of which several dozen are widely applied. His biographer Robert Lomas wrote that he was the man who invented the 20th century. (hina) rml
