    The television. It still amazes me how a "signal" can be sent through the air or down a cable which magically turns into images on a screen.

    It makes for easier mixing of concrete beams and pillars/columns to make the mix stable and concrete, so good choice there.

    since the que4stion is favorite, not most important, I would say photography and moving pictures.
