The Interfaces event will feature a special workshop session in Exeter's Bill Douglas Centre for the History of Cinema and Popular Culture.
To support the event, we will be featuring on the blog some examples of 'beyond text' treasures available for viewing and research in the archive and museum.
First up: optical toys...
The video below shows the peep-show view of the centre's functioning mutoscope, followed by a few close up shots of one of the centre's replica zeotropes (shot rather shoddily on my phone camera--higher quality images will follow!)
For further interactive videos of zeotrope animation, visit the BDC site, linked here:

More coming soon....
