Every time you view a movie, your eyes participate in some special effects
"magic". What appears to be movement on the screen is really a series of
static frames. These frames are played at a faster rate than the
eye can register the brief pauses between each frame, thus fooling the eye
into seeing "motion". To understand how this is possible, Silicon Graphics
Computer Systems has created the frameplayer below. Have fun slowing down
the motion, reversing the action, playing the movie frame by frame, and then
at normal speed to see how your own eyes can create special effects.
