Richard Balzer is an early optical device collector, with collections ranging “from camera obscuras and praxinoscopes to anamorphic mirrors and zoetropes.” He’s also amassed quite an interesting collection of phenakistoscopes, early animation devices “that used the persistence of vision principle to create an illusion of motion.”
Balzer and his assistant, Brian Duffy, have digitized these morbidly surreal animation relics.
