Today, the print media has found its reflection mirrored on the Internet.
Artistic print layouts of the past were for a time difficult to emulate.
Now the sophistication achieved in web design has given parity and a sense of continuity between both media.
One of the positive outcomes is that what is a still image in print has become a moving image in the form of GIF files on the Internet. Many of the greats of print as well as web publishing have made way for embedded video files.
As a result, I have little by little brought motion to my still images.

I created this GIF animation for A.D. Minh Uong, to accompany the print illustration in this week-end edition of the New York Times. It illustrates the story written by Thomas Fuller and Cade Metz about how Artificial Intelligence is helping scientists predict when and where the next big earthquake will be.
