I love you dad. My dad passed away quite a few years ago, but this reminded me of things he explained to me when I was about 8 years old. I was watching a cowboy movie on our "most modern for the time" black and white TV and asked how come the wheels on the stage coach looked like they were going backwards when I knew the coach was moving forward. He explained about the camera frame rate used to film the sequence and told me about his work with early film-making that he was involved with as a young scientifically inclined artist in Hungary.
