Animating funny/scary effects into historic black-and-white photos

Kevin Weir's Flux Machine project creates surprising, Python-esque animations out of public domain photos of the olde worlde. The effects are horror-comedy at its finest.

I write books. My latest is a YA science fiction novel called Homeland (it's the sequel to Little Brother). More books: Rapture of the Nerds (a novel, with Charlie Stross); With a Little Help (short stories); and The Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow (novella and nonfic). I speak all over the place and I tweet and tumble, too.

Mother Jones as you’ve never seen her.

Ah, as usual, older women who are serious (rather than sweet grannies) are a valid target. Do that and make it look funny with a young white middle class male.

  What are you on about? Do you even know that that’s Mother Jones?

These are awesome! Day thoroughly made. The WWI Decoy Howitzer is honestly the best little horror movie I’ve seen this year.

  Hilarious bit of Mester’s cineflex.

The ones that are still available are great! Sad to see so many “image not found” placeholders
