Bret Victor, beast of burden

Bret Victor, beast of burden:

I believe that dynamic pictures will someday be the primary medium for visual art and visual explanations. The medium is currently in its infancy -- working in the medium is more about technological fumbling than artistic expression. The revolution cannot happen until there is a means for artists to draw dynamic pictures.

This essay describes what dynamic pictures are, what dynamic drawing is, why the subject is so important, and some initial project ideas.

If any of this inspires you to play around with these concepts, I'd love to see what you come up with.
