Etienne-Jules Marey

Étienne-Jules Marey, (1830-1904) was a French scientist, physiologist and chronophotographer. His work was significant in the development of cardiology, physical instrumentation, aviation, cinematography and the science of laboratory photography. He is widely considered to be a pioneer of photography and an influential pioneer of the history of cinema. He was also a pioneer in establishing a variety of graphical techniques for the display and interpretation of quantitative data from physiological measurement (source Wikipedia).

Relations between Etienne Jules Marey and Edward James Muybridge: Marey the scientist (professor at the Collège de France) and Muybridge the artist (photograph) maintained complex relations throughout their lives. Both born in 1830, both deceased in 1904, and sharing the same initials (EJM), these two giants equally contributed with their great minds and inventions to the origin of our science, the science of movement, well before the official arrival of the cinema.
