The Argument
An experiment in Flash illustration, by Gerald Grow.
(Click Refresh to see the animation again. Additional pictures below.)
The animation above was created around a pair of facing faces that I stretched into seven different confrontations, then set Flash to create "tween" images. Tweening normally creates smooth transitions between two images. But because these images were so different from each other, Flash went to some interesting extremes in extrapolating the transitional images. Some very interesting intermediate images resulted, as shown below.

Some very interesting intermediate images resulted, as shown below.
In this tween, a second head appeared, as if a child or a second self appeared in the middle of the confrontation.
The third face moves toward the other two.
The third face now surrounds the eye of the figure on the right.
