Moiré Kit
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 4 сен 2024
- This pack comprises an in depth investigation into the fascinating properties of Moirés, or interference patterns.
There are 7 sets of screens (18 x 12.5 cm, printed on photographic film, although one set of screens is double size) each demonstrating a different effect. One of the most amazing effects is where the Moiré pattern becomes magnified, when you rotate one screen against the other.
Another amazing effect is when you slide the top screen sideways, and part of the image moves left, and other parts move in the opposite direction!
I found this channel by accident while Googling something else, and I just spent an hour and a half watching this guy play with toys.
That same thing just happened to me
For me, it was an ad. I still haven't watched the video the ad was on.

Same haha
I found this channel through this video on May 19th 2013, three days after my birthday (on which date this was uploaded). Fate brought us together...
i actually respect this man. he is a very bright old chap isnt he :)
It is an LP-1218 Light Panel. I think they are still available, although we bought it a few years ago, and there are probably newer models around.
He has been collecting toys for nearly 30 years, and he has travelled all around the world, visiting toy fairs and also other toy and puzzle enthusiasts.
"This is a moiré kit to die for....I myself have killed three people to obtain this one...heh"

Tim is like the grandpa you just can't wait to visit
This guy is mesmerising.... I think it takes is back to a time of a show about showcasing a product with no pretention👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Mostly the toys are from Tim's collection, and are not for sale. This is one of the small number that we do sell.
I want Moire of this!
This is how to keep a stoned person busy for hours.
Indeed, it is, sir.
Antifoul Awl
The moiré kit or the whole channel?
@@Abdega Yes
@@Abdega as a stoner, i've been occupied by this channel for hours at a time.
@@killingmewillnotbringbacky9177 For sure...this guy needs a museum
Tim feels his life is so busy as it is, there is no spare time for anything more. Also he is in the Grand Illusions office at least once a week, so if there is a link or website he wants to see, he uses one of the computers in the office to view it. And people know they can e-mail Tim via Grand Illusions.
Way cool.
They remind me of demo effects, like on the C64 and Amiga.
This guy... It's asmr for me.
RockyFacedepet I follow so many asmr channels and i only come to Tim's videos for asmr qualities :) Glad to see someone else enjoying his voice. Interesting content too!
RockyFacedepet ASMR... it's effin heroin or hypnosis m8... case in point me just forgetting my life on Earth as I watched this dude...
HBO's old movie intro that ran for several decades used this phenomenon to produce the starburst shot in the beginning. Layers on layers of acetate rotating and counter-rotating. There's even a documentary of the making of the intro...lol
It's fucking 2:00 AM and I'm watching some British fellow playing with toys on the internet. What is my life :I
This is important
6 years later...are you still trapped? Lord knows I am
@@johnweitl8012 RUclips started showing these videos in recommend and sure enough, I'm still watching them deep into the night
1:39am and same
When the moon hits your eye like a big pizza pie

Have you ever been hit in the face by a pizza ??
racist
☢ SNICKERS 5+1 GRATIS ☢ No one asked your opinion. Filthy little mud-blood.
It's all in the movable grid on the top. When it is in certain positions, certain parts of the pattern are displayed through the gaps in the movable grid. When the movable part moves, different portions of the pattern are displayed. Though it still does look really cool
I'd love to see more of this kit.
This guy has so much charisma and such a soothing voice.
2:00 You can see how it works just looking at the video. One sheet has small slits. The other has compressed hearts and spades. The slits get a little bit of each heart and spade, each one slightly moved relative to a given heart or spade. So they look much wider than they are printed. It's essentially Nyquist aliasing, where your sampling frequency is too low.
We all know how it works
@@BodywiseMustard I haven't seen the Nyquist explanation before. I guess everyone else already made that connection.
The Bright Eyes album "Cassadaga" comes in a CD sleeve with patterns like this with a little decoder window thing so you can read it. The CD itself wasn't that good, but the package was entrancing.
cassadaga, oh yeah, that's where you'll find the center of energy
nick11927 Woah... that was a hell of a flashback. Thanks!
He's entered the matrix!!
3:25 "...wonderful as if you're looking at four dimensional space and time"
Is Tim capable of viewing the fourth dimension as an outsider? This explains so much.
That is incredible. As always. Tim, you are an inspiration.
I've played with moiré screens before, but never any with such amazing effects!
aka Tim destroys the bitrate
Where can we buy this kit? I looked on the website but didn't see it.
Tim's videos are intrguing.
would be amasing if you could use these to hide secret messages
amazing*
Technically you can. There's nothing that prevents you from doing it.
I like how you answer this question personally every time (no sarcasm).
What happens when you overlap more than one of them?
The stars between 1:54 and 2:20 are only visible in HD
This is a man who knows who he is.
I could watch this man for hours
Reminds me of LCD panel construction. Rotating the cards to alter the phase of the image.
High quality is a must on this one.
This is my favorite video of Tim's, such a wonderful toy.
3:02 My eyes just melted
Best episode yet
Every episode Tim gets more and more pleasant :D
Beautiful mathematics of frequency and interference
A sneak peak at an idea I had: Moiré kit on anime, possibly as a gift. It was going to be a surprise but I've got some others in mind. A fun project.
so glad I found this channel...thanks for uploading
Just ordered one of these and I’m pumped
where did you order this from?
THIS IS SO COOL!!!!!!!!!!! I've done a much less cool version of this using two overlapping combs, but this is cooler.
+The Pip i did that all the time as a kid with the combs lol
The first pattern, I'm instantly reminded of Subete ga F ni Naru.
Most interesting and entertaining. Your videos are always amusing and intriging. What a wonderful channel :))
"Wonderful distortions"
I could listen to this dude speak all day.
does it come with a light box like the one used in the video
I have no idea what's going on
Love the visual effect.
The card one blew my mind
What an intriguing illusion.
Take out backlight and diffuser films from lcd, supply it with correct voltage, use monitor plastic as housing and cover it with plexiglass. But it is easier said than done. Beware, capacitors can be still charged to very high voltage even if monitor wasnt plugged in for long time. Best for you is to go to computer repair service and they will tell you more how to do it.
Polarising film... same effect as in the display on LCD watches and calculators... Black digits on a white background. But if you turn the polarising film over you get white numbers on a black background.... Try it.
I love moirés, I like the ones that look like animals running or gears turning
I can't find this kit on your website. I get zero matches for "moire", and don't see it in optical illusions or optical toys.
deam you tim... i really need to go to the bed now but whenever 1 video finish im like: OH! this one looks interesting ... and i watch it, that cycle repeats ...
This doesn't have to be polarized light does it?
May I ask where can I buy that amazing illusion kit? That is incredible!!!
what about printing these paterns on some transparent paper/ plastic
These effects, are looking extremly like the effects used in old Home Computer (f.e. C64) Demos. :-)
It hurts my eyes...can't look away...
now this, this is art. I need to get me one of these, that's a whole weekend of fun right there
grand-illusions ... com ... /acatalog/Moire_Kit.html
It's shown in all his videos, but they don't put it in the description for some reason.
Alright, well I think this is a new favorite toy for me. Amazing.
It would be cool if you included links wiyh shops that sell this stuff in the description.
this looks awesome.
This is quite amazing.
This vid was Published on my B-Day XD
Mesmerizing.
we need to get this kit
dude, they sell this in their shop.... on the site at the end of the video
Superb.
Well, what if it's newer and you can buy them online? o:
does it show the future?
where do you get the money to afford these toys
i just love listening to his voice aha
Very interesting!
This idea is also incorporated into naval navigation
vee eks that's where I seen it ;)
very cool
Who produced this kit? Anyone know? There doesn't seem to be a mention of their name, nor the name of the kit in either the video or the description.
There was a link to the kit in the description, but they don't seem to carry it any more. I found something that seems similar here (if the link works):
lspwww.epfl.ch//publications/books/moire/kit.html
If not, look for Amidor moiré demonstration kit on google.
And the artist and kit name is?
The link in the description doesn't work :(
So fascinating but I got motion sickness after a while *lol.
That certainly was a grand illusion.
right video.
awesome
Where does Tim find such interestingly cool toys?
Idk
Your voice is so Relaxinggggggggggg
this is awesome. genius
Amazing.
I want one of these
How do I get the files from this video printed?
Can we see more of this please
Multitouch zooming biatch ! :)))
What kind of sorcery is this?
Science. How does it work?
*Googles Paracetamol*
Oh apparently it's another name for acetaminophen.
*Googles acetaminophen*
the point is to show shapes and numbers on paper. its just a bit of eye candy.
