Glenda AdamsA little something different from my #NerdStitch archives. Prince of Persia from the Apple II, I recreated the main character running animation in 8 frames of cross stitch and then attached them to a hand crank flip book kit to make it go.
Some followup, I should say I was inspired to make this by a video of Adam Savage doing a flipbook one day build with the same kit, and that pointed me to this site to buy the basics. https://www.flipbookit.com

Sean Eric Fagan@Gmatom For true authenticity, you should have had an Apple ][ control a motor to do the flipping.

The Evil Microwizard@Gmatom Can it be cranked in reverse?
@evilmicrowizard hmmm I never tried. Let’s see- yes, you can, but the pages kind of go all at once so it doesn’t animate very well.
@Gmatom Thanks for testing it!
Mad B@Gmatom

GJ Groothedde 🇪🇺@Gmatom Cool! Recognized it before even reading the toot.
Aron@Gmatom I did an animation and grad school that is kind of similar to this that ended up in the electronic theater and the year 2000. It's called today's science tomorrow's art and I wrote all the software to generate the images.
Veera LaukkarinenVau! Hieno! 🤩
