A conference for the course in History of Animation
Come and discover pinscreen animation!
The pinscreen was invented and created by Alexandre Alexeïeff and Claire Parker in 1930; only 2 examples remain in the world.
Alexandre Noyer has succeeded in recreating a pinscreen to perpetuate this little-known technique.
During the conference, he will explain everything about this “image-making” machine.
From research and design, to how to use it, you will know all the secrets of the pins. And you will even be able to test the pinscreen yourself!
