How do you hook up a security camera to a computer so it will record instead of a vcr?

Follow the instructions that came with the camera. You will need special software, and you may not be able to use the same camera, as it produces an analog signal for the VCR and you need a digital signal.

Be aware that digital recordings take up a LOT of disc space. Generally you will get better results overall if you use the VCR. Surveillance cameras are one area where old technology is better than new.

When was the first photograph taken in the US?

The first photographs taken in the US were made in the spring of 1839 by two Harvard students: Edward Everett Hale and Samuel Longfellow. They repeated experiments per descriptions of Talbot's work published in American journals early in 1839. John Locke, of the Medical College of Ohio, publicly exhibited photogenic drawings (made without a camera by placing objects on sensitized paper, then exposing and processing) sometime early in about May 1839. Samuel Morse was the first to bring news of Daguerre's invention to the US via letters to his brothers, published in the New York Observer on May 18, 1839, and was one of the first to attempt the process when the instructions arrived in August, but the first documented Daguerreotype taken in the US was by a man named D.W. Seager, who had carried the French instruction manual from London to New York and had taken it directly to Morse. Seager's first Daguerreotype was a view of St. Paul's Church in New York City taken on September 16, 1839.

A remote isn't what you're looking for. If the camera has an mic-in input, plug a microphone away from the camera there. If not, use an external recorder for audio and sync it in your editor later. One last thing is to get a lens with internal autofocus (STM on Canon). They're much quieter.
