My dear collectors, your time has finally come. This whole drop, in fact, was designed to act as merely a vessel for your rewards. Collectors of my work may enter a drawing to receive the climax of this drop, the Collector’s Zoetrope: a luxurious, elaborate, and meticulously-crafted zoetrope that is the perfect centerpiece to any home office.* ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
For everyone else, I present to you the Mass Market Zoetrope. The antithesis of the Collector’s Zoetrope, it prides itself on being simple, inexpensive, and replicable. It was designed with two functions in mind:⁣⁣
1. To afford the user an exhilarating zoetrope experience in the most succinct manner possible.⁣⁣
2. To make the Collector’s Zoetrope appear more luxurious by comparison.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Everyone has access to the Mass Market Zoetrope. The 3D files will be made available for free, under the CC0 Public Domain license, so that you can 3D print one for yourself. ⁣
⁣
Many thanks to Chris Vranos for all his help bringing this creation to life through his vast experience with 3D printing.⁣⁣ This zoetrope design is based on techniques developed by John Edmark.
