A major candidate for travelling world wide "THE FLIP BOOK SHOW"
Dear Visual Media visitors,
Recently, the "FLIP BOOK SHOW" opened in the Foto Museum, Antwerp.
On the occasion of the opening, the Foto Museum published a dossier in
their regular Foto Museum Magazine (No. 35.)
See: <http://www.visual-media.eu/publications.html>

'The Flip Book Show' is a major interactive multimedia exhibition where
books turn into cinema.
Curators <mailto:[log in to unmask]> Christoph Schulz &
<mailto:[log in to unmask]> Daniel Gethmann are the first in the
world to devote a suchlike interactive multimedia exhibition on the 'Flip
Book' genre.
Therefore, this 'Show' is a major candidate for traveling in and out Europe
to various Foto, Film, Media and Contemporary Art Museums.
The Flip Book Show mainly features the work of contemporary experimental
artist's but also provide an historical introduction and artefacts on this
pre-film medium which became a huge inspiration source for artists until
today.
To situate the Flip Book in the myriad world of historical 'Optical Toys',
the chapter 'Philosophical Toys' by your GOOGLE Group editor
(http://groups.google.com/group/visual-media), describes the Thaumatrope,
Phenakistiscope, Zootrope, Praxinoscope, Mutoscope, Kinora, Filoscope, the
'newspaper movie machine', etc.

All best,
