Rotation
Phenakistoscope motion on a spinning disc
Place circular images on a spinning turntable and watch speed create hypnotic motion.
About Rotation
Rotation is built on the phenakistoscope, a 19th-century optical toy. Place an image on a spinning disc and persistence of vision turns still frames into motion, symmetry and fractal-like patterns.
Use it for visual art, to demonstrate persistence of vision in class, as a party trick, or simply to relax while the disc turns.
