the 8k digitisations for the Eye's Mutoscope & Bioscope restoration project THE BRILLIANT BIOGRAPH are breathtaking. this is from the 1898 actuality RECREATION IN SCHEVENINGEN.

2/2 And I enjoyed the “real life” context of bisexuality that @jacobengelberg.bsky.social brings throughout his writing that brings a fresh (for me) lens to familiar recent history. So proud of what you have achieved here, Jacob!
