Support the independent voice of Phoenix and help keep the future of New Times free.
One new idea for every day in 2011. We're talking big, small, local, international, in action, and on the drawing board. Here's today's -- what's yours?
London-based designer Katy Beveridge isn't alone in her fascination with zoetropes; the quickly spinning devices have been used to create animations for centuries. Today, they've helped the development of the cinemagraph and the physical GIF.
"I've taken a lot of influence from other contemporary designers who are using these techniques to explore the way we look at animation and how its made," she writes. "I developed this project based on what is being done in animation right now as well as a lot of primary research into the history of animation techniques."
Keep Phoenix New Times Free... Since we started Phoenix New Times, it has been defined as the free, independent voice of Phoenix, and we would like to keep it that way. Offering our readers free access to incisive coverage of local news, food and culture. Producing stories on everything from political scandals to the hottest new bands, with gutsy reporting, stylish writing, and staffers who've won everything from the Society of Professional Journalists' Sigma Delta Chi feature-writing award to the Casey Medal for Meritorious Journalism. But with local journalism's existence under siege and advertising revenue setbacks having a larger impact, it is important now more than ever for us to rally support behind funding our local journalism. You can help by participating in our "I Support" membership program, allowing us to keep covering Phoenix with no paywalls.
