I'm letting my OCD run wild today. While looking to clip a couple of tasty items from Eadweard Muybridge's Plate No. 312, I noticed that instead of the usual sequential presentation, the individual images were arranged in reverse order. So instead of presenting the natural motion intended, it would have been backwards. This plate shows a man lifting and then heaving ar rock from two different angles. I have cropped them and posted them here today in the natural order. If some photoshop genius out there wants to make a GIF of these and send it to me, you will be lavishly praised, thanked, and credited.
Oh, wonderful. As you know, I'm a big Muybridge fan. I remember from a talk at Tate Britain in 2011, that I understand, several of the sequences were edited. Inserting the best images from several takes.
ReplyDeleteThanks, David. That may well explain the incongruities is some of the numbered sequences.
DeleteI think the speaker was Marta Braun? As she had written a book on the subject at the time. She had formed some slightly odd options, from what I have leant from other experts at Kingston University and Library ..a very complex character, to say the least...
