I don't care to start a debate about who first invented television when, but I remember hearing (conformed by wikipedia [1]) that Leon Theremin, inventor of the musical instrument named after him, demonstrated mechanical television at roughly the same time.
Funny you bring Leon Theremin up. I just showed a friend of mine The Thing[0] today.
