| Animation Animation is the rapid display of a sequence of images of 2-D or 3-D artwork or model positions in order to create an illusion of movement. It is an optical illusion of motion due to the phenomenon of persistence of vision, and can be created and demonstrated in a number of ways. The most common method of presenting animation is as a motion picture or video program, although several other forms of presenting animation also exist. Animation | |
| Normal distribution In probability theory and statistics, the normal distribution or Gaussian distribution is a continuous probability distribution that describes data that clusters around a mean or average. The graph of the associated probability density function is bell-shaped, with a peak at the mean, and is known as the Gaussian function or bell curve.The normal distribution can be used to describe, at least approximately, any variable that tends to cluster around the mean.

| Zoetrope zoetrope is a device that produces an illusion of action from a rapid succession of static pictures. The term zoetrope is from the Greek words zoe, "life" and trope, "turn". It may be taken to mean "wheel of life" or "living wheel."It consists of a cylinder with slits cut vertically in the sides. Zoetrope | |
| University of North Carolina The University of North Carolina system includes all sixteen public four-year universities in North Carolina, United States and one public residential high school. While the system's Board of Governors oversees general system policy, the campuses are classified as separate institutions and are largely autonomous from the system office. The UNC system has a total enrollment of over 183,000 students and confers over 75% of all bachelor degrees in North Carolina. University_of_North_Carolina | |

| History of animation Animation is an art form which, in its modern guise, appeared alongside the development of motion pictures. Earlier attempts at making drawings move were only experimental. History_of_animation | |
| Mutoscope The Mutoscope was an early motion picture device, patented by Herman Casler on November 21, 1894. Like Thomas Edison's Kinetoscope it did not project on a screen, and provided viewing to only one person at a time. Cheaper and simpler than the Kinetoscope, the system—marketed by the American Mutoscope Company (later the American Mutoscope and Biograph Company)—quickly dominated the coin-in-the-slot "peep-show" business.

| North Carolina School of Science and Mathematics The North Carolina School of Science and Mathematics (NCSSM) is a two-year, public residential high school located in Durham, North Carolina, which focuses on the intensive study of science, mathematics and technology. The school accepts rising juniors from across North Carolina and enrolls them through senior year. North_Carolina_School_of_Science_and_Mathematics | |

| Praxinoscope The praxinoscope was an animation device, the successor to the zoetrope. It was invented in France in 1877 by Charles-Émile Reynaud. Like the zoetrope, it used a strip of pictures placed around the inner surface of a spinning cylinder. The praxinoscope improved on the zoetrope by replacing its narrow viewing slits with an inner circle of mirrors, placed so that the reflections of the pictures appeared more or less stationary in position as the wheel turned. Praxinoscope | |
| Stroboscope A stroboscope, also known as a strobe, is an instrument used to make a cyclically moving object appear to be slow-moving, or stationary. The principle is used for the study of rotating, reciprocating, oscillating or vibrating objects. Machine parts and vibrating strings are common examples.In its simplest form, a rotating disc with evenly-spaced holes is placed in the line of sight between the observer and the moving object. Stroboscope | |
| Thaumatrope thaumatrope is a toy that was popular in Victorian times. persistence of vision.The invention of the thaumatrope is usually credited to Peter Mark Roget, who used one to demonstrate persistence of vision to the Royal College of Physicians in London in 1824. He based his invention on ideas of the astronomer John Herschel and the geologist William Henry Fitton, and some sources attribute the actual invention to Fitton rather than Paris. Others claim that Charles Babbage was the inventor. Thaumatrope | |

| The Gulf Stream (painting) The Gulf Stream is an 1899 oil on canvas by Winslow Homer. The painting shows a man in a small boat struggling against the waves of the sea. Homer vacationed often in Florida, Cuba and the Caribbean. This painting alludes to John Singleton Copley's 1778 composition, Watson and the Shark (see lower right). The_Gulf_Stream_(painting) | |
