Anémic Cinéma on Your Wrist
 / 

I embedded one of these videos and linked to the other in my Gadget Lab article on the near-future of wristwatches, but I thought it’d be worth juxtaposing ’em here too.

Two quick notes: in case it’s not obvious, “Anémic” is “Cinéma” backwards. And as you can see, Duchamp was never one to limit himself to just vertical OR horizontal reading. (Watch the whole thing.)

Minor nit to pick: Anemic isn’t Cinema backwards. Cinema backwards would be Amenic.
