The ticket turns into a paper fan, and also…!
This year’s ticket is paper fan. It is also a Phenakistoscope, for which you can enjoy animations!
【What is Phenakistoscope?】
A phenakistoscope is an animation device which uses the persistence of vision principle to create the illusion of motion. There is a spinning disc attached to the handle and there are a series of drawings drawn around the center. As you spin the disc and look through the moving slits, it gives you the illusion that the drawing is in motion.
