The Cinétype app is a pixel art UFO. The objects produced by the Cinétype app belong to a new kind of photographic media, where the birthing-process of images is brought forward, taking power and celebrating its profound meaningfulness over the "ultimate" image itself — through the use of cinemagics. Building on the work behind the Pixel is Data app, the Cinétype app provides a palette of animation parameters to produce surprising, high definition video results using pixel data extracted from photos and drawings alike. The Cinétype app is a tribute to the invention of photography by French engineer Nicéphore Niepce and its original, slow motion, chemical processing. It's free, forever. #Cinetype #CinetypeApp #PixelisData #PixelArt #PixelsInMotion #RealityIsOverrated #GoMakeArt #Celestial #Glitch #VideoArt
