Summary: Stop-motion photography as practiced by Edweard Muybridge and Etienne-Jules Marey and others is the topic of this class session. These scientific experiments ultimately led to the development of motion pictures by Edison. This “studio” recording of the class session uses a video format so the full-motion of movies played within the presentation can be seen. Note that since this is a studio recording, the podcast audio says that it’s class #8, but in fact it’s class #10 for the spring, 2012 semester.
