Motion

Modern society moves at such a quick speed that we rarely get a chance to stop and catch our breath. When we take a moment to pause and observe mundane tasks such as a person sipping a cup of coffee, we get to better appreciate what we're seeing. I often see things through an animator's lens. Everything we see on television is a series of still images spaced and timed so that you are under the illusion that these images move together seamlessly in real time. It's fun to sometimes imagine the world as an infinite canvas on which motion paths are the paint strokes. In other words, try to picture a basketball player in motion. Imagine his or her movement, spaced relative to position and speed. What you would see on the canvas would be a confident stroke of red as an aggressive player makes their way towards the rim. A dejected player on the losing team would be a couple strokes of blue, slowly moving toward the bench.
