So being that I commute from Brooklyn I take the express B train and I have to say it got WAY more enjoyable ever since Bill Brand restored his Masstransiscope which was originally installed in the abandoned Myrtle Ave. subway stop in 1980. His inspiration came from "Zeotrope" a method used in the early 20s to view film.
You can only see the installation when riding the B and Q trains into Manhattan.
I posted two videos, the first is an original broadcast of the installation and the second is a view from the subway currently with the installation in its restored state.
Super Cool. Super Trippy.
cheap thrill for $2.25 (and counting)
