Like you said, that could get disorienting fast, but such as the skill of the artist that it all feels of a piece.

(For personal comparison, I’m in the middle of an AfterEffects project I’ll post in this space shortly. It’s one of the hardest I’ve ever undertaken and at most I’m doing one keyframe every three seconds.)

(Don’t have any recommendations offhand, just poke around, sorry.)

re: lesson plan. If there’s one that makes good use of the instructional time / learning ratio, sure. Actually doing a 64K demo requires a lot of math prowess, but that’s the sort of thing that would take an entire semester to teach just that one thing.

“Music is the pleasure the human soul experiences from counting without being aware that it is counting.”
– Leibniz or Pascal, depending on whom you ask.

It’s beautiful all around, but I’m amazed at how fast some of the 2d-transitions zip by yet manage to remain clear and intelligible. Faster than the shaky-cam fight scenes that have ruined action movies for me, but I felt like I could track every little square and triangle.

Our brains love watching patterns.
