I am so happy today- I got a lesson from Alexander Alexeieff!
This channel is stunning. It's great to see a young Ryan Larkin at work
This is so cool. It's almost like analogue pixels. The process of having one artist on either side of the screen working in tandem is interesting. I also really like the way they talk.
I imagine the the manufacturing process of a pinboard must be very intricate and time consuming.
Mr Alexeieff is so creative that he even holds his cigarette creatively.
The real gem is at the very end. This holds for both AI gen artists now as it did to hand-animators then... tho' the time involved now ___may___ be lessened!
"Someone recently told me animators read little.
And of course animators have the poorest men in time if it be true that time is money they are the poorest people on this planet… and yet I’m certain that you will find more inspiration and suggestions in all fields outside of yours. Look toward poetry, science, music, psychology, astronomy, ANYTHING… anything… from these alien fields… may come inspirations. Unexpected by you which will enrich you… and give you more raw material than thousands of screenings of your colleagues works."
Alexander Alexeiieff to animators in 1973
awesome
The idea of anyone smoking near a screen like this -- hood golly. THE TAR!!
Are there any films that utilized their invention? Or was it just conceptual
I am certain that I've seen animation with this texture. It has a lot of similarities, visually, to sandboarding.
It was used for a film called "Mindscape".

"Le grand ailleurs et le petit ici"

It was also used in the Orson Welles film The Trial from 1962.
Of course, there are several of Alexeieff's own films. Google it
It is a fascinating thing... But... It feels like a solution in desperate need of a problem.
I reminds me of e-ink when magnified
