Jamie Zawinski released a update to Daliclock and I had a really simple idea for
animating numerals that I thought I'd try and render. Turned out almost exactly
how I imagined.

Opps - try http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aKOQXgh0OYg if that doesn't work.

Very cool.  Like GEB letters.

Amazing!!
The animation itself is very simple, but the idea is quite creative...
For me, Creativity^3*Work = Quality ;)
I can easily see how you did it...
I actually managed to reproduce the effect for any pair of extruded
numbers/letters/ploygons...
But I like the idea a lot.
Now I wonder...
What other 3d bodies can we get to follow this effect?
Other than extruded 2d shapes, and avoiding the obvious ones...
I'll see if I can make another animation out of this idea...
Some sort of shape where you can see different images depending on where does
one look at them. I could even try to find a way to colour the shapes in such a
way that an image is shown at a determinated angle... If you lend me the idea.
;)

Thanks :-)

I'd love to see any variations you do on the idea.

Cheers,
Edouard.
