Endless Loop Gifs by Erdal Inci

Multifaceted artist and photographer Erdal Inci creates mesmerizing gifs that are hard to look away from. Whether the animated graphics present a line of men twirling a baton with both ends lit on fire or a parade of lights scrambling in every direction, there’s something incredibly hypnotizing about his creations.

Typically, each of the Istanbul-based artist’s growing collection of gifs features only one man, sometimes the artist himself, who has been cloned to appear like throngs of people engaging in the same exact motions along an identical path. Presented in a never-ending loop, Inci’s gifs leave the viewer fully absorbed by the motion and dancing lights.

The 1951 film “The Man in the White Suit” is a satirical comedy film made by Ealing Studios in London. The film was directed by Alexander Mackendrick and starred Alec Guinness, Joan Greenwood, and Cecil Parker.

The plot of the film involves a brilliant research chemist who has an obsession with creating an everlasting fabric which repels dirt and never wears out. Lauded for his efforts at the success of the fabric’s creation, Sidney Stratton, played by Alec Guinness, is chased, at the climax of the movie, through the streets when the textile industry realizes this creation marks the inevitable decline of the industry.

“The Man in the White Suit” opened at the Marble Arch Odeon cinema in London on the 10th of August in 1951. It became one of the most popular films of the year in Britain. The film was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Screenplay Writing.

Bill Domonkos is a filmmaker, GIF maker and stereoscopist from San Francisco, USA. The artist combines 2D and 3D computer animation, special effects, photography and manipulated archive film footage to create unique moving images, each telling a different, surreal story.

“I experiment by combining, altering, editing and reassembling using digital technology, special effects, and animation to create a new kind of experience. I am interested in the poetics of time and space—to renew and transform materials, experiences, and ideas. The extraordinary thing about cinema is its ability to suggest the ineffable—it is this elusive, dreamlike quality that informs my work.”- Bill Domonkos
