Telekinephotron
A telekinephotron is an electronic consumer device, akin to a television set, which is intended for the receipt of telekinephotocasting broadcasts or telekinephotocasts.
The telekinephotron is capable of displaying full-color moving images and producing sound as broadcast live from a local telekinephotocasting station. All telekinephotron screens are rectangular with a 1.618:1 ratio, which is noticeably wider than tall but not obscenely so, reflecting the landscape-orientated nature of human vision.
A telekinephotron can come in a variety of sizes, capable of portability for personal viewing or permanent installation in a public setting for group viewing. A telekinephotron viewing screen could be as small as a small book or as large as a wall. Telekinephotron sets can be powered by battery, wireless power, or wired mains power.
All telekinephotron receivers which are sold to consumers in Illuminatia are subject to the Receiver License as levied by the Department of Public Service Media Revenue (DPSMR). The license fee is modest relative to the price of a telekinephotron and is imposed annually. It is possible for a relatively handy consumer to build one's own telekinephotron using a kit or acquired parts; a telekinephotron assembled by the consumer is not subject to the Receiver License so long as it is not sold to a second party in an assembled and functional form.
Manufacturing of telekinephotrons is heavily reliant upon unobtanium ore, a major constituent of the conductive electronic components that power the telekinephotron set. While the electronics of professionally manufactured telekinephotron sets rely upon unobtanium ore, homemade telekinephotrons instead utilize semiobtanium ore, which is less dangerous in an amateur setting.
