Saw the tail end of the Pixar exhibit at the MoMA on Friday. The best part is the Zoetrope – a carousel of Toy Story figures that animate when rotated really fast and flashed with a strobe light. It’s on the second floor at the rear of the movie – you can stand on the step in front of the Zoetrope to get a raised view of the movie, and then turn around when it activates. Recommended – catch it before it’s over, and appreciate why it is the new future of Disney.
