slinkachu's life and work

  • 28/m/uk 5ft9 started in 2006 with little peopleremodelling and painting of miniature model train set characters, which I then place and leave on the street.

Muybrige's motion workshop

Today in class we recreated his motion studies by setting up 4 cameras in a row and with one person walking past the camera a picture would be taken and this would show the different stages in the persons walk. We did this because Muybrige's motions studies were very important part of the history of photography.
