Response regarding Marey's Movement Machines:

I found this article to be an interesting in-depth description of the study of Etienne-Jules Marey's (1830 -1904) measurements as a result of the machines he invested to measure what can not be perceived and actual visible movement. In a mechanical way, he proved his theories and experimented with perception to calculate movement and how it was taking shape. This article explains his study of movement and I think how one may also learn from this information to understand more about how movement is expressed.

There is various things about movement that Marey focuses on about this topic: not only the curves of movement but the curves in movement; the complexity of mechanisms of perception as linked to movement; techniques of relation and how the senses themselves perhaps can be perceived as a process coupling with the environment; the relationship of time, movement, and space; the capacity to feel movement that would be experienced as imperceptible; and Marey's machines themselves that were open to experimentation to invite a new way of thought.

Overall, I think movement, as a result of this article, shows how the details of movement and rhythm are important to show perhaps both learned and experimental ways to express this naturally and how this information could be used today as a tool towards engaging with movement in a perhaps better way and understand more about how this can be applied.
