ABSTRACT
Our discussion of images that move — and images that move us —begins with the first creatures of the earth, or perhaps even earlier, aslight and fire, wind and water moved in their own ways in their own time. As best we know, the first entities that moved of their own volition were microorganisms deep within the seas of the earth. One has only to view the exquisite flowing beauty and variety of Monterey Bay Aquarium’s “Living Art” exhibit of tiny jellyfish to envision an endless array of moving beings — living images — constantly shifting the stillness of time and space.
