Who & Why Tesla...
If you have found yourself at this blog and you're wondering...'where is the content...?'...my answer to you is...please, be patient. I've just set the blog up.
It is my intention that I will post at least one blog a day...sometime art, sometime tech, sometime politics...always from the observations of this post-modern world girl.
Why am I Tesla Girl...? Because Tesla is my hero...an abused, misused, marginalized, haunted genius who has given to the world if not exact technologies, then certainly concept technologies that have shaped, & still shape, this planet called Earth. Below is a video hosted by YouTube channel, OlafWilhelm. It is called, They tried to make the world forget his name - Nikola Tesla the greatest Inventor of all time. (Alternately called: Nikola Tesla - The Forgotten Wizard)
After the video is a listing of just a few of Tesla's ingenious technological inventions. It is hoped that if you, the reader, were unfamiliar with this great man previously, you will leave this first blog with a new appreciation for this 'Forgotten Wizard.'

The life story and work of Nikola Tesla. He invented AC electricity, Neon Lights, Radio transmission, The Electric motor, Wireless electricity transfer, Remote control, Hydraulics, Lasers, Space weapons, Robotics, and many, many more things.Some Electromechanical devices and principles developed by Tesla:
* various devices that use rotating magnetic fields (1882)
* induction motor and high frequency alternator
* means for increasing the intensity of electrical oscillations
* alternating current long-distance electrical transmission system (1888)
* Tesla coil
* bladeless turbine
* bifilar coil
* Telegeodynamics
* systems for wireless communication (prior art for the invention of radio) and radio frequency oscillators
* robotics and the "AND" logic gate
* X-rays Tubes using the bremsstrahlung process
* devices for ionized gases
* devices for high field emission
* devices for charged particle beams
* methods for providing extremely low level of resistance to the passage of electrical current
* voltage multiplication circuitry
* devices for high voltage discharges
* devices for lightning protection
* Magnifying Transmitter
* VTOL aircraft
* Dynamic theory of gravity
* concepts for electric vehicles
