Both were predated by
@atduskgreg and@39forks' Physical GIF project in 2011.https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/gregab/physical-gif … -
Also flip books have existed for just a little while longer than all of these projects...

Jeezus, folks. Let's not do animation tech “I did it first” shit. Everyone will lose. // cc: me and/or
@scottmccloud for examples -
I'm not saying Greg and Scott were first to convert animated GIFs to analog objects—only that these guys making that claim are both wrong.

I know. I'm just... you're right. It's late.

if there's anything i've learned from computer history, it's that "first" is usually generations earlier than you think

Let's add some years and some zeroes to that 3. Ever heard of a zoetrope? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zoetrope

Yeah, they have one of those at Disney (or did). I was going for the first mechanical flip book. This game is fun tho!

See "zoetrope", which may date as far back as 1st Cen BCE (with a possible singular outlier 4000 yr ago.) But this device is still neat.
