The Giphoscope turns your favorite GIF into a hand-cranked work of art


The Giphoscope turns your favorite GIF into a hand-cranked work of art
The work of Marco Calabrese and Alessandro Scali, it's made up of an aluminum frame mounted on a base of Italian walnut. Your GIF is then broken down into individual images, which are mounted onto individual cards around a central core. Cranking through the images relies on persistence of vision to create the looped movement of the original GIF, mashing up your imagery with the hand-crafted charm of some of the earliest motion picture devices (the creators point to the Mutoscope as their inspiration).
