Animei — animation; a moving picture thrown on a surface by lensed light.
Notes
Made with painted glass frames advanced past a lamp by clockwork, at a rate fast enough that the figures appear to move. The Lwymthra throws the image; the clockwork moves the frames; the Animei is what the audience sees.
Used for entertainment above all. Shining Reach lecture halls use it to show a mechanism working, Eldershore festivals project long painted sequences, and traveling showmen carry small sets between waystations. A good Animei is a set of several hundred hand-painted frames and represents a year of somebody’s work.
