I know Jodie Mack had some all-star(r) flip-books that she got from Cecile 
Starr.  Jodie, you out there?  Tell the world!  (If I remembered more, I’d 
offer more, but I have only the vaguest of memories of who/what.)

Thanks for sharing the flip book !
Hope to hear from someone else about its author.

I think Robert Breer had some Mutoscope activities.
Also, Robert Huot made Zoetrope strips and some other
related stuff. I'll get the details to you soon.

Hi Frameworkers!

I've got what I suspect is a kinda obscure question. I've been doing some 
research in the paper archives of The Film-Makers' Co-op in New York. Looking 
through early issues of the Co-op's newsletters, I discovered, in 1968's vol.1 
no.3, a 'flip book'-style animation embedded in the lower right side in the 
issue's recto pages. I've made a rough animation viewable on Vimeo here:  
https://vimeo.com/100826180 .<https://vimeo.com/100826180> The issue, however, 
doesn't give any credit to the animation's creator. I'm trying to identify to 
whom it might be attributable. Any ideas? Are the images perhaps drawn from a 
film anyone is familiar with? I know Charles I. Levine and Lenny Lipton were 
contributing quite a lot to the publication at this point; could either of them 
be the author?

And while we're at it, a more general question: are there other filmmakers that 
have worked with flip books? There's the Mutoscope and in terms of more 
experimental artists I can think of Douglass Crockwell, but are there others?

Cheers,
Heath
