Hedy Lamarr - sexy inventor (6 photos)
The photo - Hedy Lamarr, received notoriety after starred in the Czech director Gustav Mahat, for the first time in the history of cinema was allegedly nude scene for the first time in the history of "decent" movie in the movie was a sex scene (for which Adolf Hitler called it " an enemy of the Third Reich ", and Pope Pius XII called good Catholics do not watch the film). Hedy was nice not only that - without one of its invention, you would not now talking on a cell phone.
Hedy Lamarr was actually psevodnim. This was the name of the actress Hedwig Eva Maria Kiesler, she was born November 9, 1914 in the capital of the Austro-Hungarian Vienna. Her father was a banker Emil Kiesler (Lvov, your brother;)), and his mother a pianist Gertrude Lihtvits.
Since childhood, the girl studied ballet and starred in small bit parts in the Austrian and German films. And yet she had a mathematical talent - she clicked school tasks such as peanuts.
In 18 years, Headey starred in the Czech director Gustav Mahat "Rapture" (1932). The plot of the film, in general, is simple - it's the love of the young wife of an old rich man to the young man. The movie was the scene where Headey bathed in the lake and then runs naked through the meadow and forest. It's not the first nude scene in "decent" movie first "nude" appeared in American cinema more in 1915 (and then at the end of 1920 was banned for almost the whole 40 years!), But if American films nudity It shows up fleetingly, in "ecstasy" it was at the time very frankly. In addition, the film was a sex scene - the details, of course, have not been shown, it has been shown Lamarr's face during the act. The film immediately caused a huge scandal, the pope urged Catholics not to watch it, Hitler and Mussolini poured the whole verbal flow to the actress and director and banned it, and the rest of Europe and America, he walked in a shortened form.
Hedy some time acted in European films, but in 1937 she moved to London, and then in the US, where she immediately began to appear, its image has always been "pretty smart".
His famous invention it did in 1941. Lamarr then met avant-garde composer Giorgio Antaylom, who in 1924 made a "cluster" of 16 piano playing simultaneously. Lamarr and Antayl porazdumyvali together and decided that this idea can be used for secret communication - in radio transmitter and inserted the tape with holes, which ran simultaneously, and which changes the frequency of reception and transmission. That has changed the radio frequency transmission and reception of radio frequency changed. August 11, 1942 Antayl and Lamarr patented a device aiming torpedoes, which used up to 88 frequencies (FHSS - Frequency hopping spread spectrum). During the war, the patent has not been used, it was first applied in 1962 during the Cuban missile crisis of secret communications between US courts.
The principle proposed by Antaylom Lamarr and is still used in technologies such as COFDM (used in Wi-Fi), mobile communication, GPS and so on.
Lamarr acting career in Hollywood lasted exactly 20 years - since 1958 it has practically ceased to appear.
Actress-inventor died January 19, 2000.
It was her way of computing inspired artist John Corkery spend 120 hours of painstaking work to create an unrivaled masterpiece of vector graphics - portrait presented here.
