Abstract
The impact of the collaboration between photographer Eadweard Muybridge and neurologist Francis Dercum is detailed within the context of a photographic study of an artificially induced psychogenic non-epileptic seizure. Their contribution served as inspiration to other contemporary European neurologists and photographers to use motion photography to further understand psychogenic neurological disorders, such as seizures.
