Here’s a bit of
animation history. Imagine rows of paper cut out shapes hanging on invisible wires, each shape’s movement synchronised to the music of Franz List, photographed one frame at a time. To achieve the frame accurate timing, try slicing the musical score into tiny fragments without digital equipment, quite a technical feat for it’s day.
The Dot and the Line: A Romance in Lower Mathematics, is a book written and illustrated by Norton Juster, first published by Random House in 1963. The story was inspired by Flatland: A Romance of Many Dimensions, in which the protagonist visits a one-dimensional universe called Lineland, where women are dots and men are lines.
The story details a straight line who is hopelessly in love with a dot.
