Exposing Muybridge

[Tin Can]

Watching this movie right now

Don't miss it, he just killed his wife's lover

Only on Prime I think, found it by accident

Lot's of his work

You know the narrator

Thanks for the heads-up. In my watchlist, probably for later today.

And I believe if I'm not mistaken, Tracy Storer, who posts here from time to time, has a role in the movie.

I also highly recommend Rebecca Solnit's "River of Shadows, Edweard Muybridge and the Technological West" which goes into more detail about Muybridge and his remarkable life.

The book in not audio

I try to save my eyes by not reading books

I read a book a day for a long time and lived in college libraries

Thanks for refference. And “Eadweard Muybridge – The Human and Animal Locomotion Photographs”, Taschen also worth to read and look at.

Very big and expensive book!

But I found LA Goodwill had one for $53.00 delivered

Thanks for the tip

It's a good movie, even if someone doesn't know a thing about his photography itself. If it were longer, perhaps it could have been improved by dramatizing somewhat more the reallllly big mess he was in due to that shooting, and the realllly big scandal of him being acquitted due to his high profile connections. He also had flings when away, sometimes with native American women, which would have added yet another dimension to the full story, and why he wasn't a happy camper after his wife found out. Another drama movie was made about him too; but I can't recall its title.

I don't think anyone has ever taken a more compelling photo of El Capitan in Yosemite - not even Watkins or AA. There is a sheer monumentality to its whole blank sky ethos, which probably wouldn't come across on a small book page. The Oakland Museum has an original print in its collection. That's the aspect of Muybridge I most admire, despite his enormous contribution behind moving imagery. As usual, I'm more interested in the perceptual side of him than the technical. Ironically, there was a first edition of his "locomotion" images in my own High School library; bet that would be worth a lot today.

… after all of his name spelling changes, the spelling of his surname on his grave marker is incorrect. I couldn’t stop laughing at the ending. LOL
