Hello. I am Talky Tina. When I was young, in the early years of television, a lot of my friends worked in televions programs that pushed the boundaries of imagination, sight, sound, perception, identity, belonging. The time was fueled by the paranoias and fears of the fifties, sixties, and the cold war. Oh, it was grand to play with my childhood friends back then!! Spurred on by advances in sciences and technologies brought with the advent of nuclear power and the space race (we had such great toys!), programs like The Twilight Zone and The Outer Limits provided wonderful experiences, and ...

Multi-Frame GIF Story

If a picture's worth a thousand words, then a GIF must be worth a few thousand words. So a collection of related GIFs must be equivalent to a novel, or a script, or something truly powerful, right??

Here is the GIF for you to use as a template to change National Socialism to a different -ism. Now here's the trick, after that you need a GIF to setup the punchline. So Walter Sobchack is referring to Nihilism in the scene we are quoting when defining National Socialism as an ethos, my idea for this (now convoluted) assignment came from Tom Woodward's unsettling animated ...
All Aboard The GIF Train

"Train kept a rollin' all night long..." "Down around the corner half a mile from here, see them long trains run and you watch them disappear..." Trains. They are in songs, movies, and a metaphor for steady movement. And they are ripe for GIFing- given their regular repeated motion. Capture the essence of train movement in a GIF, and do what you can to keep it under 1 Mb (much of the train passing is repeated and you can delete frames and not lose the motion). Step it up a notch and match your train gif to a song using ...
