This is on vimeo, via kottke…the effect is pleasing on the eyes, though a bit difficult to describe to people…the maker of the video describes it like this:
The image is digitally manipulated by fragmenting it into horizontal lines and then combining lines from different frames in the display. The result is a distorsion of the figures caused by their motion in time, or, as Brazilian researcher Arlindo Machado calls it: chronotopic anamorphosis.
It’s not long, doesn’t have any audio, and totally worth it for the door trick at the end…
