Named from the Greek ‘idea of the heavens,’ the Eidouranion was accompanied by a #Celestina, a resonant #harpsichord. #AdamWalker's Eidouranion, with its revolving lighted and moving globes continued to be exhibited by his son’s William and Deane after his death in 1821.

Sometime about the turn of the century, large transparencies began to be used with these lit orreries. As well, the #MagicLantern seems to have been first employed in astronomical demonstrations at the very same time the #Phantasmagoria was also first seen in England.

1780 THE EIDOURANION ADAM WALKER (1731-1821) The son of a wool worker, #AdamWalker was an astronomical lecturer by profession. In his leisure time he invented the #Eidouranion, described as a transparent #orrery, a theatrical, back-lit, mechanically-driven model of the heavens that he used to illustrate his public #astronomy lectures from the 1770s–1780s. It’s widely regarded as a direct ancestor of the #planetarium projector and an awfully striking example of early #precinema spectacle. Walker named it after the Greek roots meaning roughly “image/shape of the heavens.” In practice it was a giant circular display of the #SolarSystem, often described as a 20 to 30 foot diametre transparent orrery. Audiences saw moving #planets, #comets and #constellations rendered on translucent panels and screens. Seen here is a performance of an Eidouranion at London's English Opera House (Lyceum) in the Strand, 1817.
