Hi Frameworkers! I've got what I suspect is a kinda obscure question. I've been doing some research in the paper archives of The Film-Makers' Co-op in New York. Looking through early issues of the Co-op's newsletters, I discovered, in 1968's vol.1 no.3, a 'flip book'-style animation embedded in the lower right side in the issue's recto pages. I've made a rough animation viewable on Vimeo here: https://vimeo.com/100826180 . <https://vimeo.com/100826180> The issue, however, doesn't give any credit to the animation's creator. I'm trying to identify to whom it might be attributable. Any ideas? Are the images perhaps drawn from a film anyone is familiar with? I know Charles I. Levine and Lenny Lipton were contributing quite a lot to the publication at this point; could either of them be the author?
And while we're at it, a more general question: are there other filmmakers that have worked with flip books? There's the Mutoscope and in terms of more experimental artists I can think of Douglass Crockwell, but are there others?
