N2  - Eadweard Muybridge is famous for his invention of very fast photography and his discovery of how animals and people run. For more than a century people have marveled at his series of "Locomotion" photographs, which show horses, cats, and people moving in their natural and instinctive ways. Muybridge invented techniques that showed the specific elements of our motion, so they could be studied and understood. Muybridge and the Riddle of Locomotion uses a unique combination of words, printed reproductions of his classic photos, and "lenticular" pictures-- which seem to move, magically, on the page-- to tell the true history of an enigmatic genius who first captured animal locomotion, and opened the door to the modern movie
