The Fonal Records Mystical Strobe Light
This app can be used to view the animation loops on the Shogun Kunitoki: Vinonaamakasio picture LP (Fonal, 2009).
The app is based on The Magical Shogun Kunitoki Strobe Light (FR-62SL) designed and built by Jari Suominen of Shogun Kunitoki. The physical strobe light is sold out so we decided to utilize the possibility to build an app to view the animations on the vinyl. The strobe app can also be used with any 16 frame animation record (for example Red Raven animated records) when rotated at 33 1/3 rpm.

Please note that using the strobe app can be dangerous for persons with epilepsy or tendency to it. It will also drain battery faster than usual apps so do not leave it on for extended periods.
