That is , until you see thisperfect little clipcommissioned by theUK Crafts Council , which show a clump of clay transform into an earthenware zoetrope . I could stare at this thing all day . I have gaze at this matter all day ! It ’s so , so unspoilt .
FilmmakersJim Le FevreandMike Patersonteamed up withRAMP Ceramicsto put together the light film . It looks like a computer was used to figure out the single frame of reference , then tops - tiptop - stiff hands cut back all the pattern out from newsprint and impossibly tiny bit of paper that were then applied with care to the patch itself .
When the ruined work of art comes out of the kiln , it ’s beautiful — but only hints at the visual surprise once it starts spinning .
How they mystify those birds to fly so gracefully , I do not know , but this whole thing is a wonderful mash - up of culture medium and experimental cunning , tech , and intent . Here ’s hoping that it exhort more folk to get ultra - barbarian with their creative skills . [ @CraftsCouncilUK ]
