In 1940 Lamarr met George Antheil at a dinner party. Antheil was another quirky yet clever force to be reckoned with. Known for his writing, film scores, and experimental music compositions, he shared the same inventive spirit as Lamarr. She and Antheil talked about a variety of topics but of their greatest concerns was the looming war. The two came up with an extraordinary new communication system used with the intention of guiding torpedoes to their targets in war. (jan 1, 1940 – jan 1, 1941)
