I was listening to the audio version of CoS last night (my new regimen is a
chapter every night before bed... it's delightful), and a question occurred
to me. How do the moving photographs know which way to move? What do you
guys think? I mean, obviously it's magic, so there's no real explanation,
but... Does the subject have to be moving at the time the picture is taken?
Or does the film somehow know how each person would normally move, and
duplicates past movements? Does every picture repeat the same motion over
and over, or do they have a whole repertoire? It's amazing to me that all
of these wizard photographs have movements in them that fit both the
individual and the circumstances under which the picture was taken.
