A Four-minute documentary about two bicycle-powered zoetropes at Burning Man by artist Peter Hudson. These pieces are kinetic sculptures that give an animation effect at night through a synchronized strobe flash.

Here's another one by the same artist called Homouroboros. A swinging ape eating a crawling snake's apple.

Re: Burning Man Zoetropes

Nice work, but for him to say he's attempting to try something that's never been done before is misleading. Try looking up Gregory Barsamian. Pre-dates Peter Hudson's work by many years and is more interesting.

I don't think he claimed it had never been done before. I only heard him say he "wanted to try something different and new".

That Gregory Barsamian stuff is great.
