Creative Nonfiction or Real Science?

In this day and age of so-called "creative nonfiction" it is hard to know what information is trustworthy. It's like it is April Fool's Day everyday. That's why I wonder if this art project called the Telectroscope is real or a figment of the author's imagination. In particular, after reading the "story" of the original Victorian period project, I question the veracity of the invention. Especially when the artist, Paul St. George, states that his art "has always been concerned with questioning the relationship between the viewer and what is viewed. His work is also often associated with different realities, spectacle and viewer participation."

Fox News included an article in their scitech section today, so maybe there is some truth to the science part of it all.

Anybody know anything about this project?
