Yall. Sometimes I don’t get 2 attend every alt event that I want 2 attend. Whether it is a local dance night, a meaningful indie concert, an international DJ icon spinning at a private party in Los Angeles, or even just a chilled out Coachella partie, I don’t always get to go. That’s why I look at party pix. To pretend that I am there. I want to feel like I am there, chilling.
Now I sort of wish party pix would die, and we could just have GIFs that are sort of an artistic representation of the night.
I feel closer 2 the partie happening in this GIF. I can feel the heat of the club. It makes me want to get up and dance. GIFs don’t just capture a solitary moment, they tell a story. I just want to be part of that story. One day I will be in these pictures, establishing myself as a regular on a high level PartyGif site.
I just want to be where something relevant is happening.
I want people 2 see me and want 2 be me.
I just need visual reinforcement
I just want to be part of a cultural movement
I just think the scene would be better if there were more GIFs. Imagine seeing a 10 frame gif of a crowd dancing at a Girl Talk concert. Or seeing bros chill at a festival. Or even seeing Dan Deacon ‘be krazie’ or something. Photographs sort of ‘leave me wanting more.’ Hope there are more GIFs in the future. Worried. Hope some1 is willing 2 innovate.

@anony,
one way to get this effect is with a multiple-pinhole-camera. that’s how the 3d effect works. i once saw a thingy about how it is done. you can make them really easily and cheaply.

@vivi,

Yall. Would it b more authentic if the Gifs were made of thousands of pixx?? What would happen if there were gif cameras that could take many pictures for every authentic second of the party?
How many pixx per second would be the most authentic? 10? 11? 111? one dozen [via '12']? choose.ur.own.response.
How about two dozen [via '24']?? They could design special ‘alternative cameras’ just for Merlin Bronques/Cobra Snake/Jaguar Shark [via Team Zissou] capable of capturing the full range of motion. These ‘altCamz’ [copyright 2k9 bwllmb, all rights rezerved, yall] wouldn’t miss a second of the authentic/meaningful partie action.

ok, carles–
very cool, but can you clarify where these came from? who built them? I understand how they work, but I’d like to know who created them, and whether or not they’ve posted more…
very awesome.
