It was snowing. I took 5 seconds of slo-mo video with my iPhone, processed it in iMovie on the phone (a critical step for keeping the slo-mo effect!), imported that into Final Cut, tweaked it and made a seamless loop. This shows you how.Any video editor will do, it's the underlying principles that are important. Options for rendering and exporting from Final Cut for mastering and/or uploading to YouTube, etc. is discussed in detail as well.

Frank Coleman explains Nim, the game from Last Year at Marienbad (1961)
Frank Coleman explains Nim, the game played in the film, "Last Year at Marienbad" (1961). The film is famous for its enigmatic narrative structure, in which time and space are fluid, with no certainty over what is happening to the characters, what they are remembering, and what they are imagining. Its dreamlike nature has both fascinated and baffled viewers; many have hailed the work as a masterpiece, although others have found it incomprehensible. Much like the game itself.Clips provided for education purposes.Read more about this great film and order it for yourself here: http://www.dvdbeaver.com/film/DVDCompare11/last-year-at-marienbad.htm

How I Built The First Interactive Music Site on the Internet (1995) – Frank Coleman / The Young Gods
My name is Frank Coleman, and I created the first interactive music site on the Internet. Here, at long last, is proof.I've been searching for a long time for as much concrete proof as I could find to support this assertion. It was October 30, 1995, coinciding with the release of the 1st version of Shockwave that supported two layers of audio, and it was for my brilliant, visionary friends, The Young Gods. I was on the Macromedia beta team, so I had early access to the technology.I have my original handwritten notes from when I was working out the design, and screens from the wayback machine that go back to '96, but earlier archives are lost.At last, thanks to Valentin Schmidt of the still-running Direct-L mailing list, I now have the original source files up and running on my desktop! My code still compiles error-free after nearly 30 years, mammajammas. 😉 Anyway, I feel like Georges Melies in HUGO, when they play his movies for him that he thought were lost forever.If you want to skip ahead to where I actually start playing the thing, it's a little after 00:17:00, but the preceding context is important the first time around, at least. I've salvaged all the code and will be publishing it, along with a deeper dive video on that later.Adobe wiped out 30 years of civilization when they deplatformed Shockwave, and later Flash. Companies should make their orphaned software open source!Referenced:The home page of my website in 1996, from the Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/19961223175032/http://www.21ca.com/The Shockwave page that housed this when Shockwave was a thing.
