27 photographs of a T-shirt with Albert Einstein's face on it, shifted slightly each time

I have an old T-shirt with a black and white photo of Albert Einstein's face silkscreened on the front. This shirt is almost a quarter of a century old—I got it when I worked at Bill's Records in Dallas, Texas (from 1985-87). For the last several months this T-shirt has been neatly folded and placed on the top of a stack of shirts in my studio. The stack gets moved around repeatedly. I am amazed that every time I looked over at that stack of shirts with Einstein's face on the top, a completely different person is staring back at me. Sometimes it's downright eerie. Obviously, whenever the shirt gets moved, its creases and ripples shift ever so slightly, which affects the "expression" of the silkscreened face photo. The face on the T-shirt is always of Einstein, but isn't Einstein necessarily. Sometimes the face looks funny, and sometimes it looks menacing. I have recreated the effect for you here: these are 27 photos of the same shirt, shifted slightly each time...

That last one was not necessary.

I feel ill.

My father lives in Dallas and I used to head to Bill's as a first stop sometimes before driving over to his house. I loved the fingers crossed hope that Bill would be in a good mood and give me a good deal on whatever obscure album I happen to be buying.

Usually I would leave and question my sanity for paying way more than it was worth for a limited addition something... My father said that Bills has since moved to south dallas or something. Bummer too cause it was certainly an interesting experience everytime I went.

Bill has always managed to have shirts that are either really good or really bad or some weird combination of the two that makes them interesting anyway. Like this one.

This reminds me of the same feeling I get with people looking hot only in one or two angles on Myspace.
