The #Lincoln bust still sports a shiny nose, and the area in front of his tomb is paved with walkways up to it. #Springfield home is still there, complete with the outdoor convenience, but the gift shop and museum on either side are gone, one building replaced with a minister's home from that era.

I posted this on my #animatingapothecary blog some 13 years ago, pertaining to the #romney -era #presidentialelection , as a satire, but it sure seems like #prescientpolitics today. #nokings ! animatingapothecary.blogspot.com/2012/10/2016...
1969 Home Movie Clip of Lincoln's Home and tomb in Springfield, Illinois - looks a bit different today...
It looks like four images at a time is the limit!
And to test how white ink on black paper picks up on blusky... so many files, some even from THIS century!
...and while testing things out, here are some 50 year old drawings intended to be a high school animation project (it was initially on regular 8mm FILM, with some intrinsic technical challenges), now into a viewable format - vimeo.com/730098411
And now, checking on link processes in Blusky - this one for a "triptych" experiment surrounding the Hot Air Balloon Festivals once held in Battle Creek during the 1980s - remastered from Super 8mm FILM of all things! vimeo.com/775219731

And another Major Award! (had to share this one with Kodak, but they paid for the storage, so what the heck...)
Another in an ongoing full moon series - this one a "flower moon" for the month of May.
A #majoraward from the Rochester International Film Festival - #riff - with a tour of the KODAK FILM ARCHIVES (and the notebooks of #louisebrooks !!!) and #RIT and (what, there's more?!?) some phenomenal restaurants in the area!

#Dog singing and clapping in his birthday. Oh my… I fell off my chair when I heard him the first time
"Avian Flu" a PSA parody from a few years back, has sprung back to life recently and is being recognized at this year's RIFF in Rochester, New York! With a laurel and hearty handshake, no less!
And, oh, why not just one more - #animatedgif #gif #birdflu #choreography
And the birds weigh in -- #eggshortage #avianflu #birds #birdflu
That was simply, elegant.
Love those Pisceans!
Found this a while back -- someone updated a WWII satire using "The Lambeth Walk" - it gave me a rare reason to smile this morning.
