Retchy.com - 3D Zoetrope. 22/06/09 - 3D Zoetrope This project sprang from this one little video I caught on youtube about 6 months ago. It's essentially a 3d zoetrope where the illusion of movement is achieved with the shutter speed of the video camera instead of a strobe light or the slits of a traditional zoetrope. The minute I saw these little guys passing the parcel I knew I had to try this out for myself. I decided to email the guy who made this video, Jim Le Fevre, to see if he could help me out and luckily, he turned out to be a top bloke who shares my willingness to spread knowledge. Basically, he gave me the magic formula to get it working, and saved me having to attempt a lot of horrible maths, so I could just dive right in with the fun stuff. Thanks Jim!

It still took a few goes to get it working though. I tried this first test out with a couple of VJ-ing mates, as I thought it would make a nice live video feed to mix up with other stuff... And finally, this is where I'm at now. 31/01/10 - Mock-Ups. Simon Faithfull. Site Gallery. Liliane Lijn. Raven Row. REBAR | San Francisco | art design activism. Nicolas Collins.
