Scanning Electron Microscope of vinyl being played



There's a short GIF of a record being played making its rounds on social media. This is the full-length video showing how the Scanning Electron Microscope image was made. It's extraordinarily well explained and fascinating!

This also contains an explanation of a Capacitance Electronic Disc, an incredibly obscure analogue video playback format, released by RCA in 1981.
