Computer says no

praxinoscope

Oh no. My links to the ANIMA website have died. Due to copyrite issues the site is being taken down.

Anima's GOODBYE

(See now defunct animated links to the right). Anima was the most informative site I'd found on the subject of OPTICAL TOYS. Oh well... I've noticed that David has recently updated his animation notes..and they're, ofcourse, particularly good.

zoetrope


I have found an old site that shows you how to build a zoetrope with a ZOETROPE pdf to download by Ruth Hayes


Or at Jack and Beverly's theres a 1905 (supplement to the New York Sunday American and Journal newspaper) zoetrope pattern with instructions.
