I was going to try to demonstrate Rotary (torsional) nystagmus which becomes apparent with a positive Dix-Hallpike test. However the clay was too soft and the toothpicks in the back of the eye kept moving around instead of the eye moving properly, so I just did the best I could at making the eye look around and look as real as possible. http://www.webiocosm.com/timelapse/timelapsevideos/claymation/bppvinfolarge1.wmv This is a brief claymation video made to serve as a visual aid to show how the Dix-Hallpike test and Epley maneuvers are performed. This is not intended to replace a visit to your physician or to replace the formal training required to perform these tests.

The pictures were taken every 6 seconds with a webcam and laptop from my bedroom window. They were initially played back at 30 fps but I increased it to four times that speed to make it more interesting. http://www.webiocosm.com/timelapse/timelapsevideos/finalivy.htm 12 sec. Quicktime, 3.6 Mb This is the final version of the time-lapse video of the ivy growing on the tree in my back yard. This was made by taking two pictures per day from 7/08/06 to 10/20/06. I then used Quicktime pro to convert this to a video. I thougt this would be a hefty file, but I was able to preserve the quality and large size of the picture, while compressing it to a easily downloadable file size. About 4 seconds into the video you can see that I cut the ivy at the bottom of the picture and new buds begin to take off. The latter part of the video was made during a relatively wet period and the ivy hit a rapid growth spurt. http://www.webiocosm.com/timelapse/timelapsevideos/claymation/waterdrop1.mov Water drop, 4 sec., Mov, 9.1mb (Large) http://www.webiocosm.com/timelapse/timelapsevideos/claymation/waterdrop1small.mov Water drop, 4 sec., Mov, 780kb (Small) http://www.webiocosm.com/timelapse/timelapsevideos/claymation/waterdrop1f.wmv Water drop, 4 sec., WMV, 340kb (Small) http://www.webiocosm.com/timelapse/timelapsevideos/ivypart1.wmv This video was made over a period of about 6 weeks using still images taken about 12 hours apart, twice daily. Toward the end I cut the ivy which is where it begins to die. If you slow down or stop it on the right frame, you will see the knife as a marker in the left lower corner. At the end of the video another bud begins growing on the left, which means there will be a part 2. 7 sec.
