I didn’t quite finish this animation because I ran out of paste and time. But I am happy with the new experiment of adding white paper in some of the frames to imply movement and erasure. This time around I also dramatically increased the number of frames, so the motion is more fluid. The wall also has a very appealing dimensionality to it now, feeling and looking like a fungal growth where the figures overlap 80 times. I will continue this sequence later in the week.
Thanks to Simon Glass for much needed assistance and instruction about my camera settings, and to James who helped me build this movie (again) from my photos.
animated GIFs IRL, this is/was/is great
