Phenakisakope

In lesson today we produced a Phenakistoscope, by doing this we all got a papper plate drew a line through the middle then drew 3 more lines cutting the plate into 8 triangles then created a image from beggining to end e.g a balloon floating, a man running or a someone punching someone. Then cutting a slice on the edge of the plate to be able to look through, then getting a pin putting it through the centre of the plate and attacting it to a pencil at the back, going to a mirror closing one eye and looking through the slices to see the balloon rising. Joseph Phateau.
