GIF Art

For those of us in the digital group, the GIF presents a new and difficult artistic medium. Most of us see GIFs often, but they are usually in the form of annoying Web advertisements whose movement is purely a tool to divert the observer's eye from what they are actually trying to read or watch. I was totally lost about how to make a good GIF before last Thursday's class, but seeing other people's ideas helped me a lot. In the same spirit, here is a website to browse called GIF Art. A lot of the GIFs are too noisy and obnoxious, but I think some are pretty interesting as well. Take a look!
