These seem so simple and dated to us but imagine living in the 1880s and seeing animation like this for the first time when it was invented. Must have been mind-blowing.

I have a sci-fi/fantasy novel where-in the author included a flip-animation on the corners of the pages. 🥰 I enjoy little “Easter eggs” like that, and my boys enjoyed the novelty so much they were interested in reading the story; a miracle, at the time. 😂

So nice, so nice. A few nerdy friends would do flip drawings in the margins of our school books. I think we were 13 or 14 at the time. We did get into trouble for defacing our books. We claimed it was the damage caused by talented previous classmates. There was a sympathetic Lady collecting our books that seemed to like what we did and, with a wink, looked the other way went she could. Thank You, Mrs. Wheat. Shy, unconfident kids needed your kindness.

the zoetrope is the opposite of the slit experiment; where instead of it observed as a particle(s) starting out outside and then showing up as a wave pattern in the box, the animation starts out in the box as a wave, or contrary patterns to create a positive and negative wave swing, that comes out of the box as a particle(s) or solid story to an observer

Amazing artifacts Tim thank-you for sharing these. I've grown up with video games and some of the technologies used frame by frame animation for example a game from the 90's called Flashback an amazing adventure game that used a technique called Rotoscope. Each animation was hand drawn frame by frame then stitched together to create the illusion of movement.. The rotoscope technique was used in many games, Castlevania was another and the technique allows the creator to show more realistic movement but at a painstaking cost of allot of time needed to create the animation..

@KazyEXE 8 ай бұрын

Rotoscoping is drawing over actual filmed movements. Hand drawn frame by frame was just the base form of animations until computers came along.

Hi, Tim, great stuff; I love persistence of movement effects! I'm wondering if you've seen the latest one that combines the last type you showed with the strobe effect? I only learned about the around a month or so ago. The lights need to be out, which is neat because it blacks out much of the machine itself, and when you spin the figures around, a strobe mounted in the carousel only shines on one spot and the figure itself appears animated, rather than being reflected in a mirror. It's a very immersive effect. There are some videos of it on YT, but I'm sure you've probably seen them. Keep up the fun work. 👍
