Neat!

I want one. Here’s my typographical experimenting:

Also neat!

[Doctor_Faustus]

Nice! What did you use to create this?

[Jerry_Sneede]

Thanks! You can see here: http://lightherder.blogspot.com

Oh wow, that is much more analogue than I thought it would be!

This may be a stupid question, but why would the different letters/words move at different speeds? Are they positioned more or less frequently than others?

I am confused.
Is this a paper disc with words printed on them that exhibit zoetropic effects as it relates to the video shutter, or is this a two-color (black and white) vinyl record that is also playable?

[Jerry_Sneede]

Exactly.

From my reading of the article it’s a playable record. 100 copies are being produced
